how to define "picture", can I hide my files into some picture then upload it and essentially use amazon-picture-unlimited as an unlimited file storage?
While I haven't read Amazon's terms of use as to whether this is ok from a policy perspective, most back-up services don't check for "files within pictures". In fact, the hiding of data within imagery is called Steganography:

Although the intent with Steganography is (weak) cryptography, the method should work for your purposes; only way to know is to test it! Admittedly until you've tested this thoroughly, I would not RELY on this for anything other than a fun test. Enjoy! :-)
