I prefer the option 3, because if I'm doing an theater presentation that
uses a projector, I don't want any possibility to the audience to see the

I don't really care with those two options... But I would be happy if I
could have LxLauncher on one monitor, and a normal wallpaper with normal

Although is hard to find an extended wallpaper, the "2" is the prettiest =]
