Finally, select all three of your image planes and right-click.
Open up their properties and check the Backface Cull option if
it isn't checked already. This will allow you to see through the
back of the image plane so you can model without your
side/front/back views being obstructed!

The final step is to freeze the image planes so you can't select
them when you didn't mean to. However, by default Max
applies a very matte gray material to any frozen object. This
would prevent us from being able to see our reference. To
turn off the freezing in gray, go back into your image plane's
properties and uncheck the Show Frozen in Gray check box.
Click OK.
