Hi I have been moaning about the splash screen for ages I have no idea why they have not done something as it obviously annoys a fair number of people! Anyway to be more serious it does not bother me much now because I have found a way to avoid seeing the thing when I login onto my iMac running OSX 10.5.4.

1. In System Preferences set Omniweb as one of your account login items and tick the box to hide it when you login

2. In Omniweb's Preferences under Tab & Window Preferences make sure there is no tick against 'Present a window when Omniweb starts'

When your desktop appears after you log in you should see a spot under the Omniweb icon in the Dock indicating it has started. When you then click the icon to launch you should get no splash screen just the browser window.

Hopes this helps ....
