I saw an f29 folder there, but decided not to change that but instead made a new f30 folder in the /usr/share/backgrounds folder on the f30 system.

After that I rebooted the f30 system. When the reboot was complete, I opened g-c-c and opened the backgrounds tab and clicked the Background thumbnail.
