*For the animated version, it uses the bouncing sounds followed by a splatting noise. |

*Usually for the split-screen credits, it's the same as the original credits (including Jimmy saying "Gotta blast!"). In the case of ''Invader Zim'', however, two variants were used. One was the synth drone and electricity sparking from the start of the episode "The Nightmare Begins" (which was the most common), and the other was a modified version of Zim laughing at the end of the opening theme. |

Nickelodeon Animation Studios (also known as "Nicktoons Productions"), the animation unit of Nickelodeon, was established from Games Animation in 1990, and is best known for producing Nicktoons such as SpongeBob SquarePants and The Fairly OddParents. The unit was also producing Nick Jr. programs such as Shimmer and Shine and Wallykazam!.
Nicknames: "Splat!", "The Orange Splat", "The Nicktoons Splat", "Gotta Blast!"
Logo: We see the Nickelodeon splat logo, but reading "NICKTOONS" on a black BG (although sometimes it reads "NICKELODEON" and is stretched out more). Copyright information is seen below, or sometimes not at all.
Variants:
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show or a soundbite of the show. Sometimes, none.
Music/Sounds Variants:
Availability: Was very common in its own time, but it's now rare, as Nickelodeon is deleting pre-2009 logos on television, and is replacing them with the 2009 Nickelodeon Productions logo. However, some prints keep this logo intact.
Editor's Note: If this logo has been shown after Nickelodeon USA's split-screen credits, sometimes the name of the show in the copyright notice is shortened down, usually awkwardly (e.g., My Life as a Teenage Robot becomes Teen Age Robot, and Oh Yeah! Cartoons becomes Oh Yeah!).
Nicknames: "Basic Splat", "Trampoline Splat", "The Bouncing Splat"
Logo: On a white background, an orange ball of slime bounces on a trampoline (which has a sky blue pad, grey supports, and orange rimming) 3 times, with each bounce producing 3 orange pulses. The camera shifts around it as well, showing a blue "sky" briefly. After the 3rd bounce, the blob flies towards the screen as the "NICKELODEON" appears on it and the blob continues to wave, as "A" and "PRODUCTION" appear letter by letter in orange. In the lower right corner, 4 translucent orange rings pulse out as the blob stops waving, becomes 2D, and changes shape before cutting to the show.
Variant: There is a variant seen on international airings of Rocket Power which just has the Nickelodeon logo.
FX/SFX: CGI animation of the ball and the trampoline.
Music/Sounds: Three bouncing sounds, followed by the first eight notes of the Nickelodeon theme being played on an off-key glockenspiel.
Availability: Rare; can be seen on Spanish prints of Nickelodeon shows, such as episodes of Pistas de Blue (the Spanish dub of Blue's Clues) on Nick on Demand En Español. In Brazil, it is seen some season 3 episodes of SpongeBob SquarePants, the first season of Dora The Explorer, on some episodes of Blue's Clues, As Told By Ginger, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, and Rocket Power.
Editor's Note: None.
