'''Logo:''' We fade into a {{Font color|red|red}} glass rectangle, with a lot of {{Font color|deeppink|pink}} sparkling on it, on a black background. It turns into place, and we see "{{Font color|red|'''KPBS'''}}" on it. "{{Font color|red|'''SAN DIEGO'''}}", in CG Omega, fades in below. Once the logo's in place, the {{Font color|deeppink|pink}} sparkling seems to die down.
'''Logo:''' On a black background, a {{Font color|red|red}}-tinted glass rectangle, with a lot of {{Font color|deeppink|pink}} sparkling on it, on a black background. It revolves around until we see "{{Font color|red|'''KPBS'''}}" inside it. "{{Font color|red|'''SAN DIEGO'''}}", in a red CG Omega font, fades in below. Once the logo's in place, the {{Font color|deeppink|pink}} sparkling seems to die down.


'''FX/SFX:''' The turning logo, and the pink sparkling all over.
'''FX/SFX:''' The turning logo, and the pink sparkling all over. It's quite obviously using a model on a black cloth with lights going through it.


'''Music/Sounds:''' An outer-spacey synthesized twinkle sound, which sounds like the opening notes to ''Street Fighter II'' on the SNES.

'''Logo:''' On a black background, an white outline for the text "'''KPBS'''" in a font similar to that of the 1971 PBS logo wiping in downwards, filling in with a {{Font color|deepskyblue|light blue}}/black gradient after it's finished. The cursive text "''San Diego''" in a {{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}}/{{Font color|orange|orange}} gradient cursive font fades in below.
 
'''Variant:''' A short version just has the "''San Diego''" text fading in.
 
'''FX/SFX:''' The shining, "writing" and flashing. All typical '80s computer effects. Not too bad for the time, though.
 
'''Music/Sounds:''' An steady synth tone shifting slightly off tempo, with a series of beeps and tones when the  "''San Diego''" text fades in. The short version also has extra notes playing throughout.
 
'''Availability:''' Extremely rare. The normal long version appeared on ''Big Mama Thornton'', while the short version appeared on ''Ballad of an Unsung Hero''.
 
'''Editor's Note:''' The music and the font can be seen as unnerving, but it's a fine logo; one that wasn't discovered until very recently.

'''Music/Sounds:''' An ascending, and then descending, synthesized piano crescendo. It ends with what sounds like a synthesized French horn note.

'''Availability:''' Can be seen if your station has older prints of programs produced by KPBS, otherwise it's extinct. Can be seen on a PBS logo demo VHS.

'''Editor's Note:''' The music may rattle you, but it's mostly harmless and a fan favorite.
