Haven't really thought about it before. But I think it defaults to the last location of the image you used. When you go to display properties, and are looking at the wallpaper menu. Click browse, select your root, "C:," then windows. Your windows default wallpaper will be at the end of this folder. Select a design from the folder and it should defult. It may be that windows scanned for all images and pics. This would be in folder settings. I'll play around with it for a while and see if it can be changed.
EDIT>No, I guess it has to do with the whole "Windows Experience," thing. The other location for your default wallpaper is, C:\windows\web\wallpaper.
