Change desktop iPhoto alb.

I was wanting to use applescript to change the iPhoto album that is being
used as a source of desktop images on a sytem, but I got stuck :).

Basically, I end up with a variable set from some tests called "alb" and
alb has been set to the name of one of my iPhoto librarys, and I want to
set the mac to use that photo collection for the desktop picture.

tell application "Finder"
	set the desktop picture to ??? alb
end tell

It seems like there should be some text to replace the ??? mark with that
would work, but I have no idea what it is :).

I might be able to do this with path names to where the album lives, but I
have different locations for my iPhoto collections depending on the
system, user, etc.

Thanks,

DAC
