Yer thats correct, I meant whats the total res size 3200x2224? Can you get wallpapers that size?
3200x1200. Most dual-screen wallpapers seem to come in that size, or variations with left and right images so you can pick an appropriate resolution for each monitor. I guess you need something like Ultramon to span the image over both monitors, or set a different background for each though.

It doesn't double in height unless you get 4.

So you'll have one block of 1920x1200 and one block of 1280x1024, the total width of any wallpaper you'll need is 3200 and the height of 1200, but you'll get a block of missing wallpaper. Your best bet would be to make a composite image like this, and set it to tiled. You don't need to mess around with third party apps like Ultramon then. The red part would be the bit showing on your 24" and the green part would go on your 19". The black part wont be shown.

I want to get my taskbar permenantly see through like in this picture. can any9one help me pls?

That's Windows 7, just has the build number hidden.

Cheers, ive tried ultramon and want to avoid it at the mo. At present iam using win7 with rotating wallpapers. Using 1920x1200 size, filled. Ive wanted one image across both screens if this is possible? A the mo ive got the same image on both, but on the 19'' its not displayed correctly as iam using 1920x1200 wallpaper size.
