ImaginEngine

Background
ImaginEngine was a children's software developer founded in 1994. Originally having Houghton Mifflin Interactive as its publishing partner, the company was purchased by Backbone Entertainment in 2003, later renamed Foundation 9 Entertainment in 2005. After poor sales of the company's software ensued, the company was shut down in 2012.

1st Logo (May 1, 1994, 1997)
Logo: On a black background, we see a stylized stick figure with three long hairs on top trying to reach its arm into a flag that contains a  star and three small  dots. Below the figure is "Imagin" placed inside a white rectangle, with "ENGINE" tilted 90 degrees and placed inside a dark blue rectangle.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on the company's first game Awesome Animated Monster Maker, as well as its Ultra Edition released in 1997.

2nd Logo (1998-2009)
Logo: On a dark blue background, a -colored filmstrip with a border moves upside down on the left of the screen. Then, it slows down as in 3 central frames we see a bulb, a hand and a gear. The word "imagine" appears in a flash to the right, and "engine" zooms in, shaking the logo, so the words slightly overlap the letter "e".

Variants:
 * There is a later version with a dark green background. When the words appear, the logo shines with a sharp sound. At the bottom is a byline for Foundation 9 Entertainment.
 * The DS version has a white area around the logo and the F9E byline in its corporate font.
 * There is also a still version.

FX/SFX: The filmstrip moving, the text appearing.

Music/Sounds: A film projector running, followed by a dark whirr, a sparkling sound, a clang, and a kid laughing (a stock sound effect nicknamed the "Diddy laugh").

Music/Sounds Variant: None for the still variant.

Availability: Common. Seen on many kid-oriented and educational games for PC, like Pokémon: Masters Arena, Nicktoons Basketball, Rugrats Go Wild, The Fairly OddParents in Shadow Showdown, and The Incredibles: When Danger Calls.

3rd Logo (December 1, 2009-2011)
Logo: This logo shows two stylized connected rotating cog wheels, and the word "IMAGINENGINE" written over the wheels. The logo is light blue, while the letters are white. The Foundation 9 byline in light blue is shown below.

Variants:
 * On Haunted House, rain falls on the logo, which is placed in a dark forest background.
 * The DS version is still.

FX/SFX: Simple 2D animation of the cogs' rotation, plus light emitting or rainfall.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. Seen on their last games, such as Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, Wedding Dash and Haunted House.
