You should put it in the Resources folder. Assets and Resources are kinf of the same thing, but resources are much easier to use, they have a built in support for different screen sizes, languages, dpi rates, orientations and much more. Assets have lots of advantages too, but for all normal purposes (such as your image) resources are the better choice.
