Hi Juan,

I suspect that you already know how to *add* the image to the map (drag 
and drop, or Layer > Add... > Files > Select), but are having problems 
viewing your image.  If your pgw file is correct (see 
http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/EN/Adding+an+image+to+a+map) 
you might try adding a prj file as well, as it is possible that uDig is 
having troubles guessing the Coordinate Reference System.

What is the projection of the image and what is the projection that you 
are viewing in? WGS84?

If you select your image layer, is a warning or error message 
displayed?  Also, what version of uDig are you using?

Cheers,
Cory.
