There are excellent "Screensavers" available on the official Rolex site. I assume you mean screensavers and not desktop pics...

A desktop pic is the backgound at you "desktop" a
screensaver is when your computer close down the
desktop and shows something animated. So you not
will get a "burn in" at your monitor when you not
use it but it still is on.

If you don´t get this, we can´t help you.

Be careful with those ones, I´ve heard people that get some "burn in" problems from those. It´s only
funny 2 weeks to have Rolex at the monitor at the
background.

The new ones have fixed that issue, Jocke. They move the watch to different locations on the screen, so no burn-in any longer. Apparently, they do listen!

LOL @ Prez...

I just noticed your notation of the fictitious award TRF didn't actually give you, but said we did: "TRF Award for Outstanding Coherence - 2007" Hahaha!!!

So according to what I've learnt today about screensavers, I really don't have one at all - just that gorgeous Blue Sub as a Desktop!!

And I suppose that's a good thing!! Right?
