The standard way I do this is to create a folder called ".background"
and place the background image there, in the DMG. This folder is hidden
in the finder. Then I get info and set the background picture and use
cmd-shift-G to enter the path
"/Volumes/MyDMG/.background/background.png" to set the background
image. I then position my icons and window size correctly, then unmount
the DMG and create a compressed read-only copy.
However, if you're looking for a tool to automate this (my automation
is a shell script that swaps out the app with the newest build and
re-copies the DMG), you might look at Filestorm. I've never used it,
but I've heard good things about it.

We are putting the final touches to our game and it's time to create
.dmg image for the installer. Why I write here is to ask you if you
know a perfect tool to create dmg with background image where the
picture file is hidden.
I saw greatly done .dmg-s such OmniGraffle or FileBuddy. Opening those
dmg-s I saw no sliders, no unneccessary folders there.
If you know a good tool or procedure to create .dmg this desired way
please write me.
