'''Visuals:''' A cloudy storm background starts the logo with a "bad TV" effect overlaying the background. The glowing silvery-blue letter "{{color|blue|X}}" flashes in and zooms out, then fades out as the logo remains in the sky footage. The "{{color|blue|X}}" flashes back in,loses the glow, and fades out. A flash brings up the same X at the center and stabilizing the sky footage, with the letters "MEDIA" zoom out as the cause of these flashes, one-by-one. The words fade out, and then one flash comes out again and brings the text back. "MEDIA" begins to glow slowly and fading the screen to white. The logo cuts into a black background with the white text "ON YOUR SCREEN", with a TV warping effect throughout.

Background
X Media Publishing was a German publishing company that became infamous for distributing the unofficial That's Life! expansion packs for The Sims. These expansion packs were known to include stolen fan-made mods for the game and was also distributed on stores (and even on online shopping sites such as Amazon). The last release from the company was the second That's Life! expansion pack, which arrived with lots of bugs thanks to an additional 3D shop feature.
Visuals: A cloudy storm background starts the logo with a "bad TV" effect overlaying the background. The glowing silvery-blue letter "X" flashes in and zooms out, then fades out as the logo remains in the sky footage. The "X" flashes back in,loses the glow, and fades out. A flash brings up the same X at the center and stabilizing the sky footage, with the letters "MEDIA" zoom out as the cause of these flashes, one-by-one. The words fade out, and then one flash comes out again and brings the text back. "MEDIA" begins to glow slowly and fading the screen to white. The logo cuts into a black background with the white text "ON YOUR SCREEN", with a TV warping effect throughout.
Technique: Computer animation done with After Effects.
Audio: An ominous drone, with laser gunshot sounds when the "X" pops up and the letters appear, followed by a drum and two heavenly choir chords (Cmaj7-Em). The part with "ON YOUR SCREEN" is silent.
Availability: The logo can be seen in the second unofficial That's Life! pack, after executing the Autorun.
