i run 3 monitors here at work
you can do it
but you have to set up your video to make it think its one big ass monitor
it can be hard to find a picture that is high enough rez to look good when it goes that big

i find mine in the nvidia control panel
right click on the screen and look around in your video setup

One wallpaper? The resolution of that picture would need to be 3360 x 1050 its going to be very hard to find an image like that. You can use photoshop, and create an image that canvas that size, then add pictures + text or renders or whatever.

I use 2 monitor's they are different resolutions, but I took 2 images (each matching the resolution of one of my monitors) and put them side by side, then loaded that as my wallpaper. Now both screens have different wallpapers.

You might want to use 2 images, and put them side by side.
