[TUT] Different Wallpapers; Dual Monitors [XP+ FREE] - trc_ - Mar 17, 2010
Lately, I've been tired of having two monitors of separate sizes and the wallpaper being sized differently and looking stupid.
Today, I am going to show you how to have separate wallpapers of custom settings (centered, stretched, etc...) by just installing free 3rd party software. It's a great tool for customizing your computer to higher limits.
1. Find two wallpapers of your choice. I have picked space wallpapers, because they look awesome :D
2. Navigate and download Display Fusion which can be found HERE.
3. Run through the install process as you normally would with any other software installation.
4. Once installed:
- Navigate to the bottem of your screen via TaskBar.
- Right-Click on the Display Fusion icon.
- Click "Desktop Wallpaper"
- Choose which monitor you want to set a wallpaper first by choosing one of the squares.
- Once selected, Find the button called "Load From..." Click it and hit "My Computer" or flickr if you have a wallpaper on there you like.
- Navigate to the picture and select it.
- For the rest of the monitors, it's the same process above.
- When finished, click "Apply" and then "OK"

Nice tut, thanks. Works great. Anyone know of a way to get slideshow wallpaper on dual monitors? I tried ultramon and that does the same as Display Fusion, but cannot do the slideshow on either monitor.

Well, now that you've confirmed Windows x64 compatibility, I may just use this for myself.
Thanks for the feedback/confirmation.
