1st Logo (October 12, 1999-November 10, 2011)

Fullscreen
Fullscreen with left & right black bars
Widescreen

Logo: In an office setting, we see a bottle filled with scarlet ink. A black label covers the bottom half, containing the company name in Impact, gold, and a stacked format. "INK" has a bottom white gradient. A split-second before the logo ends, a hammer swings down and smashes the bottle, causing the ink to spread everywhere, including covering up the whole screen.

Variant: The logo exists in both a fullscreen and widescreen format.

Technique: Live-action.

Music/Sounds:

1999-2002: Just the sound of the bottle breaking.
February 2002-May 2002: An odd, three-note piano tune.
2002-2011: A reverberating cartoon ditty.

Music/Sounds Variants:

On the Smallville season 1 episodes "X-Ray" and "Hug", the bottle breaking sound is absent.
Original airings use a generic theme and a voice over.
On The Strip, the closing theme of the show plays before the splattering sound.

Availability: Common. First seen on The Strip and was later seen on Smallville, the 2006 TV pilot of Aquaman and the 2011 reboot of Charlie's Angels.
