I know you've found other answers, but I thought I'd throw this out 
there, too. I've created the following file:

/etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/01-local-settings

and put the following in it:

[org/gnome/desktop/background]
picture-options='zoom'
picture-uri='file:///usr/local/share/backgrounds/MyLocalBackground.jpg'

Thanks
