Is there a way to run Hammer without having to run the Source SDK every time, I know its only a couple extra clicks but I'm lazy and want a Hammer shortcut on my desktop 
Also, Is there a way to get rid of the Valve logo intro thing when you run Portal, I'm sick of pressing escape every time I want to test my map 
OK, so I'm just lazy.

The -novid thing works great Jaxe, thanks for that 
However, the shortcut I want is to Hammer not the SDK, any way to do that?

You can pass the -runhammer parameter to the SDK and it will automatically run Hammer immediately.

Wouldn't you need a command or something so that it automaticly knows which game you plan on editing though? Or is it just the default game.

I like my girls like I like my cars, I like them fast, I like them automatic, and I know I'm in trouble if I reach down and feel a stick.

I suppose so. Experiment. It may be as simple as "-game portal" as an additional parameter.

I'll give it a try when I get home, I can't right now because I'm in school. (Library)

This page on the valve wiki agrees with what Korjagun said but all I get is an error saying 'The system cannot find the specified file'.
The page aint been updated since 8/4/2006 though 
I've tried sticking -game portal on the end but same error.

I guess you could just try running hammer.exe directly. It should be in sourcesdk/bin/orangebox/bin.
