1st Logo (September 1999-2001)

Logo: To the left of the Children's Television Workshop logo, we see, inside of a green rectangle, an intricately designed purple rectangular speech bubble with a design cut into it that can be interpreted in one of two ways:

A squinting bearded man with a top hat with a patch on it who is facing the right, and another face smiling and looking at the camera that overlaps the man's eye.
A strange, smiling and seemingly fuzzy creature with a long, slim neck, a long, curled trunk and a top hat with a patch on it.

Below this design, we see the name of the company:

P E P P E R ' S
G^HõS^T

The "H" and "T" rest above two shiny dots.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the pilot.

Availability: Seen on the original pilot for Tiny Planets. This logo was also used on its website and other related material from 1999 to 2001.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (June 10, 2001-December 21, 2002; 2003-)

Logo: On a white background, on the right of the Sesame Workshop logo and on top of some purple, smoke-like spots that scroll to the left, the name of the company in the same style as before, in purple blurs in. A minimal starburst effect with purple stars also fades in along with the company logo and rotates around it. A copyright notice is seen below.

Variant: There also exists a still variant, which has just the text.

FX/SFX: All 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on Tiny Planets. Still in use today.

Editor's Note: None.
