Visualsː On an background, the Nickelodeon print logo from 1984-2009 is shown at the center. Depending on the ident, a random event would happen during its screen time.


 * September 2005-January 2006?: Starting in September 2005, Nickelodeon began to transition from the "letters" era to the "scribble" era. Following this, all of the idents were modified with 2D hand-drawn animations made with marker (and sometimes with paper, handprints, splats, stains, etc.).

Triviaː


 * This graphics package seems to have come from the British design agency the Designers Republic, and multiple sources state this, but any mention of these idents does not appear on said design agency's website.
 * It has a website version, where it's a message to help the people affected by the tsunami at the time.

Variantsː There were various IDs in the history of the ID's usage.
