I have a dual monitor setup, one wide-screen and one full-screen. The problem is that the wallpaper only looks good on one monitor. Is there any way to make two different wallpapers for the two different monitors?

I have a XFX 9600GT and on mine i can have dual individual displays but unfortunately i dont have two moniters so i cant. Even u have the same generation of series that is 9xxx series. You can go to NVIDIA control panel and at the side there will be some options choose manage multiple displays. Beyond that i dont know much as i never tried it. If u feel this is useful plz add reputation to my account.

Alright so I got here:

The monitors are set to Dualview, is there where I go to control the wallpapers too? Because I can't seem to find out where to make them independent

Try using a widescreen wallpaper to see if it works on both monitors.
maybe someone can find a suitable program to have a different wallpaper on each monitor

I currently have a widescreen wallpaper and the fullscreen monitor cuts off the sides, as one would expect. On a fullscreen wallpaper, there are just vertical letterbox-looking bars.
If such a program exists, I'd love to be pointed in that direction?

You r on dual view right now? IF u r then it will make the desktop screen divided into half on a screen. I am not sure about all this dual monitor thingy but i can try to help out. Try finding out on the NVIDIA site about your card.

Oh thanks for that link, it looks like exactly what I'm looking for. The only problem I have now is that the write up appears to be for XP. I'm new to Vista so I can't find the "web" tab, this is all I have:

I'm going to be honest, I went into this expecting very little results, or hearing that it can't be done. I now have two fly as hell wallpapers and I greatly appreciate the help you guys.
