I tried this one but it doesn't seem to be doing anything, so odds are I am 
adding the observer wrong. I am a little new at this, if that wasn't obvious 
haha.

// Second notification, when the screens change
[nc addObserver:self
selector:@selector(handleBackgroundChange:)
name:NSApplicationDidChangeScreenParametersNotification 
object:nil];

The handleBackgroundChange is just supposed to print a message with NSLog.
