Beddoes// They look weird in the bottom left corner.

You know what’s funny? These splash pages are getting less and less like my site, and as they do, they get better and better.

I think that all of them look kinda odd to be a splash page. Anywho, I would say 1 because IT IS simple, and it’s cleaner. I defenately wouldn’t go w/ tentacles as that specific technique is old, and played.

Well I would definitely wouldnt suggest making a splash page that doesnt fit the style of your website. I’d think that people would vote much differently if we could see your site as well as the splash pages. I mean the splashes alone are cool but if i clicked on, say, #1 to enter your page, and the site didnt have any black and blue, id feel like i was at the wrong site.

That’s a good idea, how would you like that? I’d love to learn that.

The one you just posted is by far the best. However, you should find an alternative to the dashes in it

I’m gonna make a new one based heavily on the site design. Expect to see something soon. The site colours are pretty similar to what’s in my footer.  
[size=1][color=silver][I accept no responsibility for confusion if I change my footer.][/color][/size]

Here is a splash that follows the theme of the actual site exactly. It even uses the same background image.

It turns out that the blue in the footer is too blue.
