the uninstaller does not remove the preferences. but, as always, you are advised to make backups first! growl preferences are at ~/Library/Preferences/com.growl.GrowlHelperApp.plist custom displays are at ~/Library/Application Support/Growl/Plugins/ individual application settings are at ~/Library/Application Support/Growl/Tickets/
you can't easily see library folder in lion any more :( use the Go To Folder option in Finder (cmd+shift+g) and paste in the above paths should work.
