"Gee, this is harder than I thought." This article doesn't contain enough information. If you know anything about Polka Dot, |
Polka Dot is the sixth (fifth if excluding pre-Nickelodeon) era of Nickelodeon. It debuted on October 7, 1996, replacing the Fontoid era, and ended on July 12, 1998. It was replaced by the Toy Box era.
Bumpers[]
Steve Speer made Nickelodeon bumpers of various styles. These bumpers were used from October 1996 to July 1998. This series of bumpers was also one of the only ones in the era to use types of words (excluding the "Nickelodeon" watermark, of course).
Generic 3D bumpers were used from October 1996 to July 1998. Two outfielding bumpers featuring paper cuts pictures of the "Nickelodeon" logo in front of photos were released from this time as well.
