Is there any way to get a single wide desktop wallpaper to span a dual monitor setup in OS X?

Thanks for the program name. In case anyone else stumbles across this, MultiScape can be found on Github github.com/robbiet480/multiscape – Brent Dombrowski Jan 19 at 3:09

Without splitting the image by hand into two halves (one for each monitor)? Not currently.

Their is a program called Multiscape that would automatically do what Chealion explained by getting your screen dimensions and automatically sizing and splitting the wallpaper. Although the google code page is down. If you want to go on a treasure hunt Multiscape is what you're after.

the google link is down. I found the binary and compiled it. I tried to find a way to contact the creator, but to no avail. I apologize in advance to you, mystery person. http://rapidshare.com/files/330982889/MultiScape.zip

Thanks for the recompile. I was just looking for another copy of this for a laptop I recently acquired and couldn't get into the google link (still). Nice work. But it doesn't seem to work on my version of the OS (10.4.11). Bummer. I really want some nice space images across the multiple monitors.
