'''Logo:''' On a {{color|darkviolet|purple}}-{{color|darkorange|tangerine}} gradient sky background, we see a modified version of the 1994 Fox structure, this time with the second and last rows replaced with the words "'''{{color|gold|FOX}}'''" and "'''{{color|gold|FAMILY}}'''", and the top row consisting of a giant, cartoonish-looking suburban house, with adding flower pots, bushes, and the stage as a garage. The camera pans out from the other side of the structure, and then moves to the familiar 20th Century Fox angle. We then crossfade into a completely different sequence, in which a 3D lopsided {{color|greenyellow|green-yellow}} oval spins around and stops in the middle on a {{color|dodgerblue|blue}} background, whilst slowly turning. There are {{color|darkmagenta|plum-purple}} "swishes" around the oval, and the text "'''{{color|darkmagenta|FOX FAMILY}}'''", in the Fox logo font, is shown inside it. The text "You Belong." slides in from the bottom and "crashes" and settles.

'''Music/Sounds:''' For the regular and short ID, there is a quick pop-rock tune with an alarm clock-sounding 3-note tune (which was Fox Family's theme of the era), along with boomerang sounds for when the other Fox Family logo appears (similar to ''Shrek 2''<nowiki/>'s DVD menu when pressing the "Play" button).
