Hi and welcome,

do you mean one pic halved over two monitors, or the same pic on two seperate monitors?.

Hi,

see here:

http://www.webupd8.org/2012/10/ubuntu-m ... creen.html

Basically open Zorin Menu > System Tools > Preferences > Tweak Tool > desktop > Picture Options and set the desktop setting from "Zoom" to "Spanned".

Hope it helps.
