In addition to Wojciech Zylinski's answer, if you want to find the location of a custom wallpaper you've set, you can find it between the <filename></filename> tags in ~/.config/gnome-control-center/backgrounds/last-edited.xml of your home folder.

You can also change the login graphic with ubuntu-tweak "Login Settings". There's a handy button that sets the background to whatever desktop wallpaper is in use. You can also change the login screen logo there as well. You can get a copy at http://ubuntu-twaek.com.

Actually, he didn't want to change the wallpaper. He probably wanted the location of the wallpaper so that he can use it for other purposes... – jokerdino♦ Jan 20 '12 at 9:19
