Re: OSM tile satellite picture ?
What exactly do you mean with "the satellite picture?"
What is the source of those pictures you want???
OSM does not offer any satellite pictures.

Re: OSM tile satellite picture ?
OpenStreetMap is a volunteer project and generally speaking volunteers can't afford satellites. They're kinda expensive and it's difficult to build one in your backyard.
If you need satellite imagery, you will need to get it from a source that isn't OpenStreetMap.

Re: OSM tile satellite picture ?
Maybe you can find some source on http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Aerial_imagery ?
Make sure that you are allowed each source for your purposes, according to each licence!
And be aware:
The images from http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bing are only allowed to be used in the known OSM editors, not for displaying / publishing, IIRC.
