You'd want to write an application that uses AuthServices to obtain
permission to use NSFileManager to back up the user's original
DefaultDesktop.jpg (since you're a nice, well-behaved application and
all), then to copy some other image over the original.
Each of these things is well-documented in Apple's documentation
and well-covered in this list's archives and there's a lot to know, so
your first step is to read. A lot. ;-)
