Hm, perhaps. Is there a way in Lua perhaps? I'm uncomfortable with XML. Trying to stay simple.

local addonName, addonData = ...
local InstallerLogo = CreateFrame("Frame", addonName.."ILogo", UIParent);
InstallerLogo:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD");
InstallerLogo:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self,event,...)
    self:SetSize(850, 480); -- the size of the splash
    self:SetPoint("CENTER"); -- its position on the screen
    if type(CharacterVar) ~= "number" then
        CharacterVar = 1
        InstallerLogo.texture = InstallerLogo:CreateTexture(nil, "HIGH");
        InstallerLogo.texture:SetTexture("Interface\\Addons\\PawsUI\\Art\\Splash.tga");
        InstallerLogo.texture:SetAllPoints();
        InstallerLogo:SetAlpha(0)
        InstallerLogo:SetMovable(true)
        InstallerLogo:EnableMouse(true)
        InstallerLogo:RegisterForDrag("LeftButton")
        InstallerLogo:SetScript("OnDragStart", InstallerLogo.StartMoving)
        InstallerLogo:SetScript("OnDragStop", InstallerLogo.StopMovingOrSizing)
    else
        if CharacterVar == 1 then
            -- Do something post install. --
        else
            -- Do something post install. --
        end
        CharacterVar = CharacterVar + 1
        if CharacterVar == 100 then
            ChatFrame1:AddMessage('HOLY CRAP'.. UnitName("Player").."! You have used PawsUI *100* times before. THANK YOU! <3")
        else
            -- Do nothing. --
        end
    end
end)

Ok, so this is what I have so far in the goal to fade in/out the splash minus that part. This part is trying to set a per character variable to 1. On 1 or below, the splash shows, 2 or higher - it doesn't. I don't want the splash / install to pop up on every loading screen / reloadui.
