Oh well in that case, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=5760x1080+wallpaper
Yeah I already did that and searched thru every damn link for about 1h and still I couldnt find a wallpapper that had 5760x1080 (except the one I'm using atm) so please stop being a dick?
Yeah, that would definitely be the case if it wasn't for the first link being absolutely rammed with images fitting those dimensions. Examples coming in edits:
You do know that 5760x1200 isnt the same resolution as 5760x1080 and I did cheak that link and every link on that website and I couldnt find a singel 5760x1080.
Also that website seems to do some scaling of images for you if you set a preferred resolution. For all the pics (though I doubt you'd want to upscale).
I did try to use that scaling but it seems to not work since even tho I have set it at 5760x1080 it doesnt change

It makes my 3 screens become one.

except the 3d part.
DO WANT!

Is it a very technical job to set up? I'm not the best with computers and the like, but I'm fairly confident with them, so I'm just trying to figure out if it's an option.
Well if you're using Nvidia you need atleast two graphic cards and if you're using AMD you need to buy a display port adapter, and it really is heavy on your gpu. And then you activate it in nvidias/amd control panel and then you're done.
Certainly not impossible for me then! I'll look into it. Thanks for your time, though, and sorry about derailing your thread! =P
No problem at all :=) It takes some time to get used to but after 2-3 days I started to love it.

Well mr dick. Did you find any 5760x1080? since you said it was so damn easy.
Little bit uncalled for. Whatever. Bored of you now, and it's clear you're not the sort who'll take an image that's slightly too big and fix it up.

And besides: If the images on that site did fit OP's criteria and he still hadn't managed to find an appropriate desktop on his own, pointing him to google wouldn't help in any case.
How do you know? Maybe let the OP speak for himself and you do your White-Knighting elsewhere? Or is this one of those 'I've just hit a milestone in comments and I'm feeling like I've got the big balls on today' moods that just isn't going to stop? Done with you too, this is boring.

To anyone actually interested in getting large pics for multiple monitor backgrounds - a great solution for when you can't find exactly what you want is to find pictures that are a little bit bigger and either cut bits off them so they are the right size or just display them full size and have your desktop manager to the trimming for you.

Yeah it does seem to love getting it just slightly wrong. But you could easily cut down the awesome Tron pic they have a tiny bit and still have a great background.

Well that's not quite what I did now is it? I talked about the topic, and suggested that your OP had an element of showing off in it. Which it did. If I started a topic called 'What is your car?' and then claimed "The title says it all" (which you've now edited I see), and then shown a pic of my Ferrari (I don't really have a Ferrari) as my car, what sensible person wouldn't think I was showing off?

Currently using this, a wallpaper with Tales of Vesperia characters:

Used to use this, but it could be a little awkward if a lot of people come past and stare intently at your monitor (no, it's not porn). It's a beautiful picture though, so many emotional details:

[small]EDIT: To answer one of the other questions in the OP, I change it whenever I find something that can replace my current one. I don't change weekly or monthly, just when it suits me.[/small]

May I ask what have I edited?

"If it did, it would say 'Looooook at meeeeeeeeeee! I've got three monitors! Look at meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Oh yeah, what backgrounds do you people use?'" That is not suggested.

Now, I never intended to "White-knight" anyone. I just feel like pointing out when people are being silly; regardless of the situation. Also, I guess you can say I like to watch people on probation act rude.
Or is this one of those 'I've just hit a milestone in comments and I'm feeling like I've got the big balls on today' moods that just isn't going to stop?
Nope. I didn't even notice that it was my 3000th post until I had actually posted it. So when I looked at my avatar (because I love my spinning calf), I noticed a round number, and thought to myself. "Look, zeroes. This calls for a celebration."
Then I took a walk around the internet, and found out what those things that guy in the picture is blowing are called, and found an appropriate picture.

Really? Do we really have the technology to resize and change the proportions of images? Why, that is amazing.

[sub]To any mods that might happen to read this: Sorry for being a bit of a dick in this post. It's just that when a person who is already on my blacklist goes about acting rude, I can't really hold myself back.[/sub]

Yeah it is. You should trust that my grasp of the English language is far more accomplished than your own. I don't mean to put you down with that comment, and wouldn't consider it offensive in normal conversation (though, of course, you are free to be offended).

You've edited your original post. Quite a bit.

You've failed to answer my question.

I've got this one [http://wallbase.net/wallpaper/112599] right now, but I'm thinking about getting a different one. It's a bit too bright and green for my tastes, even though I really like the picture.
