Separate Backgrounds in OS X Spaces

Spaces. Personally, it is my favorite addition to Apple’s Leopard operating system. I have become very accustomed to working with Spaces and have long desired the ability to set a different background for each virtual “space”. That is now possible thanks to SpaceSuit. Installation of SpaceSuit is a breeze and setting your backgrounds involves a simple drag and drop. The only downside or complaint I have thus far is that I can not figure out how to set unique backgrounds across my multiple monitors. Maybe a reader out there has figured out how to do this and can chime in. Anyways, Enjoy.

Honestly, I don’t really like SpaceSuit.
Tried it for about a week and I guess I found the transition between spaces quite rudimentary. It may please some other users like yourself, though! :-)

To the author: If you run your dual head system in spanned mode (IE: 3200×1200, etc) simply create a wallpaper that is composed of two 1600×1200 images in one image and apply it as your desktop wallpaper. Should even work with this app :)

I have a different desktop image set for my Xerox monitor. I just opened the system preferences on that screen and then moved it to the main display on my MacBook and set a different one there. It is always kept, when I plug in the monitor, the image I set for it appears again.
