Save background image of slide

Does anyone know how to save Background image of slide in powerpoint presentation (2010). Here is a part of my code where i'm trying to clear slide to get the background image but it's not quite the desired result

PowerPoint.Presentation p = app.Presentations.Open(slidesContainerPath, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse);

        string imagename;
        foreach (PowerPoint.Slide s in p.Slides) {
            imagename = s.SlideIndex.ToString() + ".jpg";
            s.BackgroundStyle = Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoBackgroundStyleIndex.msoBackgroundStyleNotAPreset;
            foreach(Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Shape shape in s.Shapes)
            {
                shape.Delete();
            }                
            s.Export(imagesContainerPath + "\\" + imagename, "JPG");
        }
        if (p != null) {
            p.Close();
        }

It's easier to help you solve a problem if you STATE the problem. You say "it's not quite the desired result". That could mean many things, from "nothing happens" to "my computer explodes". ;-)

If I had to guess (and I do), I'd say that you're probably seeing every other shape deleted from the slides rather than every shape. Instead of a foreach loop, use something like this (VB/VBA, translate as needed):

For x = s.Shapes.Count to 1 Step -1
  sShapes(x).Delete
Next

That will delete ALL of the shapes on a slide.

Or just this instead of a loop:

s.Shapes.ShapeRange.Delete
