Does anyone know where I could find the wallpaper of the MI6 logo that was used for all the computers in Casino Royale? Perhaps a screengrab or something similar would work. Thanks!

I was gonna start a thread about that ever since we got the pictures of him sitting with the laptop months ago.

It'd be awesome if someone could find it. /make it...no pressure Gobi :)

Wow I had no idea so many people were looking foward to my posters/wallpapers.

This one is going to be hard, but I'll see what I can do.

There's a thread over at MI6 requesting the same thing and one poster has posted a nice image of the MI6 logo.

EDIT: Wait... different thread. The one I started linked to that one. Oh well

Here's a wallpaper I made using the logo iwjp made and posted over at MI6. I hope he doesn't mind. It's a bit blurry due the the size of the original logo. Hopefully this will make for a decent place holder until a higher-res image of the MI6 logo becomes available.

The desktop theme in the link you gave us doesn't work for me.

I've got it downloaded in the right place but it will just revert to "Energy Blue". Any ideas?

Try this link: http://www.softpedia...load-55201.html

Look for the US download link, save the .exe file, then run it. Worked for me...

Thanks Gobi-1, my computer looks better already (of course the previous desktop was the DB5 version of the CR pictures, so it was no slouch either!).

I think it's interesting that the wallpaper as shown on M's laptop does not show the bottom part where the Latin phrase "PER PIU SIGUREZ A" presumably is (as shown in The World is not Enough), because it's not strictly a correct Latin phrase.

At least not one I can decipher or translate properly. Here's an old thread that tries to fathom the meaning of the phrase.

Anyway, that's my theory as to why you don't see the whole crest on the screen.

Well the smartass answer is that MI6 no longer exists. It is SIS. They have a website. http://www.sis.gov.u...put/Page79.html
