1st logo (December 29, 2004-August 17, 2014)
Nicknames: "Boring Planet", "Creepy Eye"

Logo: We see the word coming from beyond the planet, like the Universal logo, but the action is faster and the objects are silver. The planet slowly zooms out, while the word ПАРАДИЗ continues to swirl around. Suddenly the borders appear around the planet making it looks like an eye. Four more borders then appear in each side. Then "ПАРАДИЗ" in another font compresses and places itself below the logo.

Variants:
 * The earlier version of the logo exists: the starfield looks blander and the words are "ПЦП" (above the logo) and "ПАРАДИЗ" (below the logo).
 * On a variant of the logo, the words are "MGN" and "PARADISE". "DIGITAL" later appears below "PARADISE".
 * On another variamt, "DIGITAL" appears above the logo together with "ПАРАДИЗ".

FX/SFX: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: Ominous humming sounds.
