digital blasphemy has widescreen wallpapers. that might work for you.

Download this:

Install, then right click anywhere on your screen, go to properties, then settings then you should be able to figure it out from there.

Also, after a month you will have to pay to use UltraMon. It's $40 and well worth it, makes working with two monitors much easier.

If you already have an image that is wide enough to stretch across two monitors properly, when you set your desktop image, use the "tile" option, rather than stretch or center. "Tile" works for me.

if u have ultramon, right click on the tray icon, then select "wallpaper." and click "one background for the whole desktop." very simple.
