BTW, refresh the page for that link, and you'll notice for a split second 
that the red area displays the TiddlyWiki splash screen (the one Eric 
points to.)

Tones: I figured you already knew about the TiddlyWiki splash screen 
approach, and were looking for a little something more ?

Or were you just simply suggesting that splash screen be setup in 
TiddlyWiki empty.html by default, so that folk just need to customise 
something that is already setup, instead of having to set it all up from 
scratch?
