The three words set into the middle of the screen as two {{color|silver}} bars appear from both sides, resting at the top and bottom of the wording, with the finishing touch being a black marble version of the famous skyline logo topping the logo. | '''Logo:''' Against a bright {{color|red}} background, two {{color|silver}} beams of light point upwards.
