Hi Pascal,
I spend more than one hour on this, to find a clean solution. So please add this to the wiki.
I will when I'm more comfortable with ConTeXt.
And if you can, send my a copy of the nice background image (never mind if not). I felt in love with this, while testing your example.
I'm sorry, it's a commercial image. I don't own the copyright. However it can be purchased at high resolution (color) for an affordable price: http://www.istockphoto.com/file_closeup/people_specific_attributes/race/mixe... I hope the link doesn't break, if it does search for "Old Paper XXL". iStockPhoto has lots of really good artwork available at reasonable prices.
Anyhow, the cut markings are still lying under the picture (Hans?), the rest should work. The automatical scaling of the image uses a tricky method from this mailing list

Indeed, it would be nicer to have the cropmarks on top. Though this is not essential to me. Lulu.com actually doesn't want crop marks.
Best wishes, Peter
BTW: do you set a bleed|crop-box?
No clue? How do I do that? What does it do? Basically Lulu will print a 9.25"x6.25" image onto their paper. Then a centered 9"x6" page will be cut from that. This way full bleed print is achieved. Though I'm still wondering about one thing: What's better in my case \printpapersize or \overlaysize?
