Default Software for multi-monitor wallpapers?

I've just dug up two old 17" monitors and hooked them up to my computer so now I have 3 monitors going off a Shuttle

The problem is that I can't make any wallpaper look right on the monitors due to tiling and stretching overlaps, is there any software that can display a different wallpaper on each monitor or perhaps span the same image across all 3?

I used this when I had two 19" monitors at work, should do everything you're asking. Plus it can give each monitor its own task bar.

Just installed it at work, thanks that's a lot easier than making a photoshop image that's double your resolution of one screen adding the pics in it and then selecting tile on your desktop.
