Ok yes seems you are right. I didn't realise this feature made it into
12.04 final release. In that case its a possible issue with Gnome
Control Panel rather than Unity Greeter. As the control panel is what
would need to make the copy of the image.

Bug description:
This happens on both my laptop (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, AMD64, Unity 2D,
nvidia-current) and my desktop (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, AMD64, Unity, nvidia-current).
I think it just used to work in Beta 2.

On both computers, my wallpaper is set to `/home/robin/Ubuntu
One/Wallpapers/Mockingjay.jpg`, and I already tried `chmod 777`. All I
get at the login screen is the default wallpaper, in stead of the
user-specified wallpaper.
File: `/home/robin/Ubuntu One/Wallpapers/Mockingjay.jpg`

Shouldn't `-rw-rw-r--` mean that everyone has reading permissions to
that file?
