2nd Logo (1989-1991)


Logo: On a black background, we see an orange rectangle with a "10" in the left half, and a map of Australia with some gold lines behind it on the right.

6th Logo (2000-2001)


Logo: On a water background, we see several blue streaks dashing around to form the top right quarter of the Network Ten logo (with the rest being off-screen), while the URL "www.ten.com.au" flashes in a couple of times before disappearing and wiping in from the right.

Trivia: This was also used as a station ID throughout the time period. It was designed by Attik.

Variants:

  • There is a secondary version where the bottom right quarter of the logo is shown instead.
  • There is another version that is the same as the standard one, except the background is aqua with bubbles constantly moving through it, and the logo is formed by a trail of sparks.
  • More variations of this logo exist, mainly being used only as station IDs.

Technique: The streaks as well as the logo and URL fading in.

Music/Sounds: A bubbling sound, a whoosh and twinkle the streaks make, followed by a 2-note keyboard and finishes with a synthesized female voice echoing "Ten".

Music/Sounds Variant: In the secondary version, it uses a shrill high pitched synthesizer, bubble sounds that are much louder than the original, and a quiet whoosh when the logo appears

It can be also seen on certain children's shows such as Pearlie, Animalia and K9, as well as at the end of Toasted TV. The newer variant with the "tenplay.com.au" URL can be seen on 2015-2018 productions such as Have You Been Paying Attention?.
