CommanderBond.NET's partner site: mi6 is currently in the spotlight on SKY NEWS (Channel 501 on Sky digital and Sky Plus).
Sky News' popular interactive section has an entire article about the 3 Bond girls screen tested with Colin Salmon. Towards the end of the report is a credential to "an unofficial fan site, mi6".
Well done guys, I wonder how many extra hits the site is gonna get now.
BTW If you wanna check it out i'd be quick because its normally gone within 4 to 5 hours.

James please check your private messages, thanks.


Thanks for your msg MrMoon - unfortunately I'm on my notebook until Sunday and can't seem to reply to it. To answer your question: yeah I've done it for 4 years now so now worries - but I work as a software architect so I don't spend much time outside office hours on those kinda things. Email me at my MI6 addy when you get up and running again. Cheers man.

It had to come sooner or later! :) The partnership CBN & MI6 formed some months ago has taken the sites from strength to strength.

The article is headlining on the Sky News website:

Well done James, but, to be frank, I'm not surprised. Your site and CommanderBond.Net seem to be the only decent (and fully-functioning fan sites out there! Anyone know of any others, please tell me!! :)). Who knows, today Sky News, tomorrow the world! Mwahahahahaa!

"I want full coverage, i want TV, I want films, i want magazines, news stories. I want us on the air TWENTY FOUR HOURS A DAY. THIS IS OUR MOMENT! And a billion people will see it, read it and hear about it from MI6." ;-)

Ah, yes. I can't seem to upload this little signature picture thing I did ages ago.I uploaded the picture on my profile, then tried to include the source code in my signature, but none of it's worked!

Any clues? HEELP! :)

You need to use Ultraboard code. It should look like this:

but I don't think Geocities lets you reference photos that you've uploaded to their site.

Alas, no, as I am visiting my folks after new year so I'm away from my digital TV =(((

Seeing the article on the Sky News website was enough reason to mass a load of people and go out for a mad night out on the town though :-D

Sorry if this sounds a little trite, but it has to be said...
"Bond20.com you're not singing anymore. You're not singing a-n-y-m-o-r-e"

:)

P.S. CBN & MI6 are going to rock the media world with our coverage of Bond 20!!!
