3rd Logo (August 28, 2012-)
Visuals: The sequence starts tilted and set on a bright tan setting, where a dark azure colored serif "Times New Roman" rotates clockwise as it zooms and settles above. Various sets of glowing bars assemble from middle to left-right, which form various pairs of text. Whilst this happens, the screen rotates in it's current angle. The pairs of text are revealed to be "Times New Roman Arial" in a stacked position with a dark azure underlined bar, and three sets of text, those being "Arial", "Arial" and "Arial" underneath the bar. The serif letter then reveals two wavy black rectangles with sprocket holes and three columns of the serif "Times New Roman" sticked between the rectangles spreading out of it. The screen backs up slowly.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A sudden rising whoosh ending with an echoed 'hit' and a held-out sting note.
