'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|gray}}/black gradient background is the pale gold text "{{color|gold|''Vin Di Bona''}}", in Vin's signature, spinning around on a invisible tube. Curled at first, the text then unravels itself. A {{color|gold}} diamond outline opens under the signature as a {{color|darkorange|dark orange}} rounded rectangle with the pale gold word "{{color|gold|PRODUCTIONS}}" on it slides up from the bottom of the screen onto the center of the diamond. A slight sheen glides over the "{{color|gold|''Vin Di Bona''}}" text.

'''Availability:''' Last seen on S1 episodes of ''America's Funniest Home Videos'' (a.k.a. ''AFV'') on the Hallmark Channel and the ABC series ''Animal Crack Ups''.

'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|darkblue|deep blue}}/black gradient background, the "{{color|gold|''Vin Di Bona''}}" signature from before spins around briefly before slowing down and unfolding. After this is done, a {{Color|orange|coral-pink}} rounded rectangle with the text "PRODUCTIONS" (in white) on it, similar to before, zooms in underneath the signature. The "{{color|gold|''Vin Di Bona''}}" shines.

* On <u>season 2 episodes of the Showtime TV series ''Sherman Oaks''</u>, the logo's music plays after the closing theme, sometimes trailing into the Chris Bearde Productions logo, and then is followed up by a line from the episode.

'''Availability:''' Can be seen on the [[20th Century Fox Home Entertainment|CBS/Fox Video]] releases of ''The Best of America's Funniest Home Videos'', ''America's Funniest Pets'', and ''America's Funniest Families''. Strangely, this plastered the next logo on airings of the Daisy Fuentes/John Fugelsang era of ''America's Funniest Home Videos'' on WGN America (now NewsNation). Also seen on ''AFV''<nowiki/>'s spin-off, ''America's Funniest People'', which ran from 1990-1994. The 1992 CBS special ''Storm the Castle'' (which was based on Japan's ''Takeshi's Castle'') should have this logo as well.

'''Visuals:''' On a swirly {{color|red}}/{{color|gold|yellow}} background with a bit more of {{color|gold|yellow}} (similar to the background of the 2004-2011 ''AFV'' graphics), the "''Vin Di Bona''" signature begins the same way as before, but unfurls quicker. The entire signature is now colored in a shiny {{color|gold}} color, which radiates off light for the 1st half of the logo. It has now been updated to match Vin's signature better, is at a slight angle, and appears to have a black outline. "{{color|gold|PRODUCTIONS}}" is also spaced out and appears just as the logo frills out. The logo shines after the unfurling.

* On <u>seasons 25-28 of ''AFV''</u>, the BG is now a <span style="background:linear-gradient(#34bdeb, #1ce615); -webkit-background-clip:text !important; -webkit-text-fill-color:transparent;">blue-green</span> gradient (similar to the background of the 2011-2015 ''AFV'' graphics).

* On <u>''Videos After Dark''</u>, the logo is set in a night city (seen on the ''Videos After Dark'' graphics) with a {{color|red}}-tinted picture of Vin Di Bona at the right of the building, as well as the {{Color|blue}}-tinted banners of Bob Saget and the ''Videos After Dark'' logo.

* Starting with <u>season 31 of ''AFV''</u>, the logo appears on a black background with a red double-gradient, similar to the then-current ABC Entertainment logo.

'''Audio:''' A calm synth theme with a soft, rising hum similar to the usual Vin Di Bona theme, as well as a ticking beat and twinkling heard with the final note (this is all composed by Dan Slider). Due to Bill Ratner or other announcers plugging the show that follows ''AFV'', it easily isn't heard on ABC though it's easily heard on international airings.

*On <u>some reruns of ''America's Funniest Home Videos'' on UPtv</u>, along with the [[ABC Entertainment]] logo before it, the music is slowed down/low pitched. The pitch varies from an episode to another. On a handful of episodes, the pitch is so low that the theme literally "crashes" (a la Windows), though this has yet to be determined.

'''Availability:''' Seen on current episodes of ''America's Funniest Home Videos''. Also seen on ''AFV: America, This is You!'' and ''Videos After Dark''.
