2nd Logo (1998-2009)
>9frtz3XBego jCe52ePb4oU

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

Variants:
 * There's 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 6 Entertainment.
 * The DS version has a white area around the logo and the F9E byline in corporate font.
 * There's 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").

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

Editor's Note: This is a favorite of many due to its longevity and numerous appearances on children's CD-ROM games.

3rd Logo (2009-2011)
Logo: This logo shows two stylized connected cog wheels, and the word IMAGINENGINE written over the bigger wheel. The logo is light blue, while letters are white.

Variants:
 * The Haunted House version has the rain.
 * The DS version is still.

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

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, Wedding Dash and Haunted House.
