I just got my dual monitor setup, now I need a nice background image to stretch across both monitors. Any suggestions on where to look for images?

My computer only let's me use one image for my background, and the image is the same on both monitors. Anyone know how to fix this?

Use a 3200x1200 image and select tile under the properties>desktop menu.

in your desktop properties, you need to change position to either "tile" or "center", i forget which. You're currently on the wrong one of the two.

do you know of any others? I would be especially interested in a Salma Hayek background similar to what you've got.

it's too bad I'm dual monitoring with my laptop, otherwise that'd be my wallpaper.

I've been looking around for good dual monitor backgrounds too. The best ones I've found I put up here.

Most of them came from a google search, and then some other scouring. Not sure on the websites.

There are some really cool high-res wallpapers for many different monitor setups at www.digitalblasphemy.com (http://www.digitalblasphemy.com) but you have to pay for a subscription to get them. I don't like the idea of paying for desktop backgrounds but one could pay $12 to get 90 days access, download everything they have, and be set for a long time. Not a a horrible deal for the quality they have that is hard to find for free.

Link (http://www.digitalblasphemy.com/mpages/2x_1.shtml) to the dual monitor ones.
