Technique: Digital shining effects over a CGI still render.
Audio: None.
Availability: It was seen on Computer Chronicles, often replacing the KCSM logo. (There may be episodes that have both the KCSM and WITF logos at the start of the show, but in-credit texts were at the end).
2nd Ident (1994-1995)
Visuals: There is a red dot against a white background. The text "WITF" in black flies in towards the camera at a fast pace, with the "I" underneath the dot. "HARRISBURG" and "PRESENTS" fade in below.

Availability: It was seen at the start of Big Comfy Couch episodes from this era on PBS.
3rd Ident (1994-1998)
Visuals: There is the WITF logo, but colored gold and with a brighter red dot. It seems to be against a plain black background, but a spotlight appears to shine on the logo, and then moving to the left. "H A R R I S B U R G" fades in below.

4th Ident (1998-2000)
Visuals: Against a black background, a picture of the Earth zooms away from the viewer, rotating as it does so, revealing the WITF logo in steel gray and dotting the "I". A light passes below as "HARRISBURG" fades in.
Technique: Computer animation.
Audio: A quick synth-techno tune.
Availability: This was seen at the end of Big Comfy Couch episodes on PBS from this era (Nashville Public TV now produces the show in the U.S.).
