Thanks! I'm guessing the two screens have to be in 1280x1024?

Semi-fresh install (a few months old now) and longcat FTW.

Excuse the GIF-quality, I still haven't installed Photoshop.

I got the longcat wallpaper from (slightly inappropriate entry)

You don't need PhotoShop to save it as PNG or BMP.

The Bitmap was too big for imageshack (and definitely too big for 56k'ers) and the PNG was slightly too big for imageshack. D:

You are in desperate need of Ultramon to make your taskbar on both screens.

I don't want it on both screens. D: Plus, the regular nVida drivers are capable of this/have this feature.
I PREFER THE TWO DESKTOPS TO BE SEPARATELY OPERATING ENTITIES.

Yep. Sorry if that's not your resolution. To make it work, Set your resolution to 1280x1024 on both screens, and set the background on this on TILE or CENTER. That's the only way it'll work.

Ultramon costs money, FYI. There's a 30 day trial. (And setting your computer calender back every day works!

I can use the Nvidia control panel to get me resolution at 2048x1024 over 2 monitors, it looks good. But why does mario look original while everything else is enhanced. Oh, and the second-to-last pipe has an up arrow while the third-in-the-beginning doesn't have a down arrow

I basically just used the magic wand in Photoshop, selected the blue sky, deleted it, added my own blue sky gradiant, and added a bevel and emboss, and a drop shadow, to the first layer. (The level) Mario is in front of the tree, so he wasn't affected. Maybe I'll make a multi-leveled one later.
