TheShadowRunner Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Hey All, I don't like the looks of the splash screen and would like to disable it. I'm not looking for extra launch speed as i know it does stuffs in the background while the splash screen is shown anyway. I just don't like the looks of it. Is there a registry key somewhere or a trick to hide it? Later, TSR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blutach Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 No. It is shown when the program is loading and doing stuff in the background. What's more, I think the ImgBurn splash screen is really cool. If you hate splash screens, try splashkiller - http://www.digitallis.co.uk/ Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmao2k Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Only reason I could see for hiding it would be to maybe run it without the user being aware. My suggestion would be to load it and simultaneously close your eyes, then you won't know its there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 So you don't like the decent new one but were ok with the previous 'box' one? On principle, I don't want to remove it (it serves a purpose) but I might allow reverting to the old style for those of you who prefer the simple things in life.

bootsector Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 LoL! One more vote for the "eye closing" solution! Just leave the Splash Screen alone! It's gorgeous, delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfcrule1972 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I much prefer the new splash screen - surely the request of one won't see it's demise Lightning ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewy Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I guess I am going to have to fragment my drive or multitask more intensively, I never get a good look at it, sure does look fancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheShadowRunner Posted September 19, 2006 Author Share Posted September 19, 2006 Yeah actually i prefer the old one. Although i won't stop using this absolutely awesome program if you don't do anything about it! This program rocks beyond words, is free and is far better than all its commercial rivals!

LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Messing with splashscreen config is made more complex because it's displayed before cli parameters are parsed and the settings are loaded (be it from the registry or the CLI configured INI file) etc. So yeah, I think I'll just leave it as it is.

blutach Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I say again, splashkiller will do the job for you no worries. It's a tiny freeware app (40kb or something), runs in the systray and is configurable for those apps you don't want to kill the splashscreen (e.g ImgBurn ) Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShadowRunner Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) I say again, splashkiller will do the job for you no worries. It's a tiny freeware app (40kb or something), runs in the systray and is configurable for those apps you don't want to kill the splashscreen (e.g ImgBurn ) Regards What about an argument such as /nosplash ? (Like some other programs have, isobuster, goldwave, etc..) No need to put an option _inside_ the program really, but using /nosplash in the shortcut would suppress it.
