Logo: On a space background, we zoom in pass the stars as a pink heart with a silver metallic snake coiled around it, with a large clear banner over the heart that reads "SIN CITY" in metallic writing. The logo shines.
Variants: Later on in the late 90s, a URL appears at the bottom.
Technique: Computer animation.
Music/Sounds: A relaxing '80s smooth jazz theme dominated by a synth electric piano. A saxophone riff then follows as the logo fades out.
Music/Sounds Variants: Sometimes, it’s silent. Later on, a techno tune.
Availability: Rare, seen on their adult tapes at the time.
