Many people out there are getting tired of the thingy which appears every time they open animation shop. They want to get rid of it, and if you are one of those people, then read this tutorial. If you didn't understand what I was talking about, here is a picture of what the splash screen looks like:
1. First of all, go to File >> Preferences >> General Program Preferences.
2. A new window will appear. Now you shall navigate to Miscelleaneous, and afterwards you have to "uncheck" the little box saying Show splash screen when application starts. 3. And that's it. The next time you open Animation Shop there will be no Splash Screen appearing at first.
