* Video games from the company have a still, slightly bigger logo which completely skips Splaat. All of the boxes and letters in "'''K'''L'''''a'''''S'''K'''Y" (except for the "Y", which is smaller) are medium gray, the letters in "'''CSUPO'''" are white, and "'''INC.'''" (like in the first logo) is on the right of "CSUPO". The background can be either black or white. | * Video games from the company have a still, slightly bigger logo which completely skips Splaat.

* 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 variant would later be remastered for 2021, which uses the animation, but with a glitchy filter put over it. The Klasky-Csupo logo now phases off the screen via a blue laser. | |||
* 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''.

* There is a bizarre audio variant found on Russian airings of ''As Told by Ginger'' which has a grouchy-sounding male voiceover speaking over the logo's music: "Klasky-Csupo (pronounced like "zupa"). Blblbllblblblbllblbl." The timing varies depending on the episode, as does the tone, as different voiceovers were seemingly recorded for every episode this version appeared on. On later episodes, the voiceover has a weird echo/reverb effect. | * There is a bizarre audio variant found on Russian airings of ''As Told by Ginger'' which has a grouchy-sounding male voiceover speaking over the logo's music: "Klasky-Csupo (pronounced like "zupa").

* Another audio variant found on a Russian airing of ''The Wild Thornberrys'' features a male voiceover (different from the one above) saying, "Film Klasky-Csupo Incorporated" after Splaat speaks. | * Another audio variant found on a Russian airing of ''The Wild Thornberrys'' features a male voiceover (different from the one above) saying, "Film Klasky-Csupo Incorporated" after Splaat speaks. | ||
* On the 2021 remastered version, the logo's audio is speed-up. However, the final boing is replaced with a laser sound, which goes in sink with the logo disappearing. | |||
'''Availability:''' Fairly common. It can be found on episodes such as those of later ''Rugrats'' seasons (starting with the episode "Runaway Reptar"), ''Rocket Power'', ''The Wild Thornberrys'' (earlier episodes had the "Graffiti" logo), ''As Told By Ginger'', and on ''All Grown Up'', all of which are currently airing on TeenNick's NickRewind; it is also shown in place of the previous logo on airings with split-screen credits. Debuted on the rather obscure cartoon ''The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald''. This logo was used on K-C films from ''The Rugrats Movie'' to The Wild Thornberrys Movie. It's also at the company's website too, and can be found on the main page when first being browsed. The alternate variant | '''Availability:''' Fairly common. | ||

* The alternate variant was seen at the end of ''The Wild Thornberrys Movie'' and the video for the studio's reopening. However, the remastered version of the variant debuted on Gábor Csupó's official YouTube account, and is assumed to appear on future productions by the studio, most notably the upcoming CGI ''Rugrats'' reboot. | |||
* The still variant appears on ''Rugrats in Paris: The Movie'' for PS1, ''Rugrats: Royal Ransom'' for PS2 and GameCube (both with the white background) and ''Rocket Power: Beach Bandits'', also for PS2 and GameCube (with the black background), among others. Recently appeared on ''Psyko Ferret''. | |||
* This logo also appeared on the obscure ''Rugrats'' spin-off ''Rugrats Pre-School Daze.'' This did not appear on Klasky-Csupo's first live-action series, ''What's Inside Heidi's Head?'', because it was a series of interstitials as opposed to a series. | |||
* The split-screen credits variant made a surprise reappearance in August 2020 on a NickRewind rerun of a ''Rugrats'' episode due to the fact the episode used Nick's split-screen credits template for the show. | |||
'''Editor's Note:''' This logo appears to be a metaphor for Klasky-Csupo's rather inspirational rise to fame from humble beginnings as an animation studio. Just like 'Graffiti', this logo is famous inside and outside the community thanks to its constant airplay on Nick, again from the unique animation and SFX, as well as Splaat's unnerving design. It's not unusual to call this probably the most infamous "scary" logo of all time, thanks to Splaat's design as well as the "in-your-face" nature of the animation; there is a staggering amount of logo remix videos and other (usually, quite low in production quality) videos related to this logo. This logo even got a remaster recently, with the addition of glitches used throughout the logo, and can scare a new generation of children if it was used ever on a children's program. | |||
