Adding a big image to a Navigation Drawer (SlidingMenu libs) - How to?

Solution
First of all this is not the `SlidingMenu` you are referring to. The image is showing the official `DrawerLayout`.
As far as your actual question goes:
The menu only consists of a `ListView`, so you just have to customize your `ListView` to display an image for the first row. You could either create a custom adapter for that or set the image via `addHeaderView (View v, Object data, boolean isSelectable)`.
Problem
I'm using SlidingMenu libs (https://github.com/jfeinstein10/SlidingMenu) to get the Navigation Drawer of my app. It feels and looks amazing but I have a issue: I want to use a big picture with a textview on top of is to display the user photo and name (check the image). How do I achieve this look? The XML menu file won't let me add a ImageView or TextView, just items and inside of those there are very limited options of customization. Check the image attached for a better look of what I have in mind. Thanks in advance.
