Using Restorator, I pulled the 'PNG' folder out of imageres.dll in my Windows 8 Pro......and so here are all the start-screen backgrounds, all in their default sizes and colors. 285 resources.
I didn't include some of the other png-files that are in this folder, like certain thumbs and blank user images; these are just the backgrounds with one thumb each, file names intact.
Handy for use as resources, or for sizing info when hacking imageres.dll to include your own images for backgrounds in the start-screen, a great idea for future Win8 theme-builders to consider....These images of course copyrighted by MS, so use prudence.
