'''Backstory:''' I was looking for Pixar stuff, when I came across a channel on YouTube called "Destiny 6274". (This channel is a now-terminated channel on YouTube. The other account is a goodbye account). They uploaded videos of rare content for the movie Cars. They had the special watermarked, but I saw this variant on it, and I really wanted it without watermark. I went on a search, and I found it on Vimeo. I eventually uploaded it on WF CLG Wiki on the 22nd of December, 2019. This also became my first ever featured photo there, due to the fact that I mentioned this in the featured photo thread. On May 6th, 2020, I reuploaded it to Miraheze. | |||

'''Backstory:''' I was casually hunting logos for a Discord group, when I went to a Swedish site called Filmarkivet. (filmarkivet.se) I searched up "paramount" on the search bar, and put a few advanced stuff to see what stuff were in there. I ignored the Paramount Journals, since there were many of them, and I didn't want to check for them all day. I also checked out ''Polarflygarna'', which had a blue Paramount logo. I eventually found the 1930 closing version, and I literally shouted: "BINGO! DEFO POSTING THIS TO THE CLG!". I checked more, and I found the 1939 closing version. I captured both finds into photos (and eventually videos), and sent them to the featured photo thread. Not long after, they both got featured. Next day, I realized I missed some opening versions, so I did the same thing as previously, and they got featured. | |||

'''Backstory:''' Basically, I found this while looking for trailer tapes. I never uploaded it to the CLG Wiki as a photo until January 2020, when I wanted to continue my "short-lived reign" of featured photos. I sent this to the featured photo thread, and it got featured. A little thing to note though, that I uploaded the opening only, since the closing only had a tiny change (which was the diamond). | |||

'''Backstory:''' My friend, muv discovered this find, and showed it on the group, mentioned in the 2nd find. He sent it to Pepsi9072, and it got uploaded to YouTube. I eventually created a page about the company, which can be seen [[PolyGram Television International|here]]! I finished up the descriptions and stuff. Some time later, muv gave me permission to upload the photo capture to the CLG. I put the photo on the featured photo thread, and it got featured. | |||

'''Backstory:''' It was February 8th, 2020, in the group I have mentioned a few times already. muv shows me a German WHV zoomout version, and asked me if I could search the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkCpOkCOYGI&list=PLadceGXV2wuHpo-N_W5EBvQHm8GMRIxA8 playlist] he found. It consisted of a few private tapes that a German user uploaded to YouTube. They asked me to search the rest (probably) because I tackled a ton of Universal Newsreels content. I started searching, and I found what seemed to be an opening to the show. Nothing fancy, I thought. Eventually, I ran into the same find muv found. The third find though.. I literally was like: "OMG ITS FOUND". I checked the whole list, and it had a few other finds. After finding the stuff from the playlist, I rushed on to publish them as video captures on YouTube and as photos on the CLG Wiki. I compiled a thread showing all of the finds. Only the extended version was featured. Fair choice in my opinion, as it was clearly the most sought-after one of the bunch. I will explain more why in the editor's note. I eventually spread it around on Discord. As of July 7th, 2020, the video capture is the most popular video on my logo channel. | |||
'''From:''' German ''Warner Video News'' VHS releases, sourced from a playlist on YouTube. | |||
'''Editor's Note:''' | |||
This was a sought-after find because this probably was the rumoured (and lost) "prototype" version. ''"Anyways, I think we can safely say that the case for Warner Home Video's prototype variant is now closed." - VPJHuk (A Discord server)'' <br> | |||
I would explain more about the whole thing, but it would be very, very long. <br> | |||

'''Backstory:''' 26th of February, 2020. muv found a MTM logo with an unusual wreath variant. The others were surprised about it. muv also explained that nobody should upload it to the CLG Wiki... yet. Eventually, it was uploaded as a video to Pepsi9072's YouTube channel, and muv gave permission to upload it to the CLG. I uploaded it as a photo, and mentioned it in the featured photo thread. It got featured. | |||
'''From:''' The end of the TV Special, ''Television's Christmas Classics'' which aired on CBS. | |||
'''Editor's Note:''' None, sadly :( | |||
=== Some other stuff relating to my photos I would like to mention: === | |||
* A whole thread consisting of over 20 Svensk Filmindustri finds was featured. All of them exist in photo form.. in WF. | |||
* The Warner Home Video thread was named "Brand new finds!" and got some positive feedback. The thread was not featured. | |||
* I took a hiatus from the featured photo thread because I thought I was spamming the thread with multiple finds. | |||
