* On October 2015 to May 2017 airings of ''Hey Arnold!'' on The Splat, this logo appeared instead of the [[Snee-Oosh]] logo for the same reason stated above. This was fixed by the time the programming block was rebranded into "NickSplat". Strangely, only TeenNick SD was affected with this error, as TeenNick HD had the correct logos. | * On October 2015 to May 2017 airings of ''Hey Arnold!'' on The Splat, this logo appeared instead of the [[Snee-Oosh]] logo for the same reason stated above.

* At the July 2012 Comic-Con venue in San Diego, California, the day before Klasky-Csupo was relaunched, Arlene Klasky mentioned that she found, as claimed, "a bunch of fan mashups" of their production logo, in which she also added that the mashups might have been created in part with how many people explained their experience with the logo as kids, and how it "scared" them, so she later decided to give the "robot" character a name: Splaat. Splaat was also given arms, legs and a more noticeable ability to speak; his voice is done by Greg Cipes. The character was originally intended to be in an animated PSA, with Splaat explaining his confusion onto why these mashups exist, and then adding that he is, in fact, ''not'' a robot, but rather an ink splat, which is how his name originated. He stars in his own web series, which you can see [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drngHXKuauA here].

It is also worth mentioning that, according to Klasky, this logo was ''not'' intended to be scary. | * At the July 2012 Comic-Con venue in San Diego, California, the day before Klasky-Csupo was relaunched, Arlene Klasky mentioned that she found, as claimed, "a bunch of fan mashups" of their production logo, in which she also added that the mashups might have been created in part with how many people explained their experience with the logo as kids, and how it "scared" them, so she later decided to give the "robot" character a name: Splaat.

*On a February 12, 2016 airing of an episode of ''Rocko's Modern Life'' on The Splat, this logo appeared instead of the [[Games Animation]] logo for, again, the same reasons stated above. | |||

* There is an alternate variant where the animation was cheaper (e.g. the liquid just waves like a flag, there's no static purple background [which explains very few holes emerging from the center once the liquid background has splattered onto the screen], the eyes of Splaat are flipped vertically instead of being animated to look down/up). There is a black background instead of a static purple background (since the logo transitions from black at the end of the credits); the logo blurs and cross-fades to the KC logo rather than disappearing like the TV turning off (along with the the purple "'''Y'''" in "'''K'''L'''''a'''''S'''K'''Y" zooming in over the regular "Y") and, to top it all off, Splaat constantly looks at the viewer (in the normal logo, Splaat stares at the blocks, but the blocks are placed directly in the center of the screen, so it appears that Splaat is looking at the viewer) throughout his screen time and smiles as if he accomplished something before the logo wipes to black. On the studio's reopening video, the variant is in 16:9 full screen at 1080p high definition, it is cut to where the hand drops the magazine clippings, the background of the clippings is in a more lighter shade of yellow, and after the we hear the duck quacking twice, the logo flies off to the right of the screen. The "boing" sound effect is not heard. | * There is an alternate variant where the animation was cheaper (e.g. the liquid just waves like a flag, there's no static purple background [which explains very few holes emerging from the center once the liquid background has splattered onto the screen], the eyes of Splaat are flipped vertically instead of being animated to look down/up).

* This logo comes in 3 versions: a standard 4:3 version (for TV shows and full frame versions of their film output, though some films have slight letterboxing), a 1.55:1 widescreen version (matted to 1.85:1 for theatrical features released in the US (1.66:1 in Europe) and to 1.78:1 for both home video releases of those films and the final season of ''All Grown Up''), a 16:9 HD version (for the studio's reopening video) and a 2.35:1 scope version (seen at the end of ''The Wild Thornberrys Movie''). | * This logo comes in 3 versions: a standard 4:3 version (for TV shows and full frame versions of their film output, though some films have slight letterboxing), a 1.55:1 widescreen version (matted to 1.85:1 for theatrical features released in the US (1.66:1 in Europe) and to 1.78:1 for both home video releases of those films and the final season of ''All Grown Up''), a 16:9 HD version (for the studio's reopening video) and a 2.35:1 scope version (seen at the end of ''The Wild Thornberrys Movie''). | ||
* A filmed variant exists on ''The Rugrats Movie'' and ''Rugrats in Paris: The Movie''. The animation is choppier and in a more washed-out color scheme, and moves at a much faster pace, resulting in the audio being out-of-sync. To accommodate this, the ending sound effects are sped up (this also occurs on the alternate variant). | * A filmed variant exists on ''The Rugrats Movie'' and ''Rugrats in Paris: The Movie''.

* On ''The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald'' tapes (save for episodes 3-6) and airings of their Nicktoons with split screen credits, the logo cuts to black just as the "Boing" sound effect plays. | * On ''The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald'' tapes (save for episodes 3-6) and airings of their Nicktoons with split screen credits, the logo cuts to black just as the "Boing" sound effect plays. | ||
* On NickSplat's airings of their shows, the logo starts when Splaat is on-screen, silent due to the credits being superimposed, and it's in warp speed. It is also worth noting that the filmed version logo is used, considering the graininess at the end of the logo. | * On NickSplat's airings of their shows, the logo starts when Splaat is on-screen, silent due to the credits being superimposed, and it's in warp speed.
