I’m not sure if I understand you correctly. Do you mean you want to change all the Desktop/Spaces to display the same background image?
If so, I wrote a bash script to do that back in 10.7. You could convert it to an applescript by running the ‘defaults write’ line from a ‘do shell script’ instead.
Note, it only work on one monitor at a time. I never did solve the problem of getting it to work across monitors.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
#! /bin/bash
#script to change all desktop backgrounds
echo "Drag and drop an image file here"
echo -n "then press return or press control-c to cancel..."
read -e WLPR;
function change_wallpaper
{
defaults write com.apple.desktop Background "{default = {ImageFilePath='$WLPR'; };}"; killall Dock
}
change_wallpaper
#EOF
