The Mainboard Splash is a single 16x9 graphic that appears on your video board before the active poll or first question is displayed, serving as a promotional or welcome screen. It remains visible until you click Start, then transitions smoothly into your game content.
Using a Mainboard Splash gives you complete creative control over placement and design‚ you can position your team logo, sponsor logo, QR code, activation title, and any other branding elements exactly where you want them in a custom-designed graphic. In contrast, if you upload separate graphics using the individual upload slots (game title, game logo, sponsor logo), those elements are placed in hard-coded positions determined by the CUE platform, and the QR code won't display.
Most teams prefer the Mainboard Splash approach because it allows for more polished, on-brand designs where your creative team has full control over the entire composition. You can include any promotional messaging, call-to-action text, or visual elements that align with your in-venue presentation standards, ensuring a seamless and professional appearance on your video board.
