Avoid sentences as such.

In the Picture
'In the picture' refers to something being a part of the image itself, either as a subject or as a background element. For example:

This is the correct form and is used all the time.

Are they interchangable?
'In the picture' and 'on the picture' are used to describe different aspects of an image - whether something is a part of the image itself or physically located on the surface of the image. As a result, they cannot be used intechangeably.
