unl22 Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Just found this today. It looks like I'm getting a new plate in 2011.https://www.nebraska.gov/survey/licenseplat...ntestsurvey.phpThe first option with the state bird and flower is attractive, but I don't like the font on Nebraska.The second is well plain. A gradient and Nebraska in two fonts, very underwhelming. The third, my pick, is simple as well. But, I have always loved the capitol building. The font again is basic, which is my biggest beef with it. I would have liked to see this design with the current Nebraska that is on our plates. http://www.flickr.com/photos/38136764@N08/3501244041/The fourth takes the second and third's negatives and rolls them into one. Which one will you vote for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one will you vote for?#3 as well. I remember driving through Nebraska about a year ago and seeing that huge monolith of a building and wondering what in the hell it was. We got closer and lo and behold, it's the state capitol building. Seems to me like it'd fit better into Lord of the Rings than Nebraska. 2011 Colorado Rockies | Season from Hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelayedPenalty Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 #4? Really? It looks like they didn't even try. Let's just draw them on cardboard with magic marker while we're at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all are pretty poor attempts. For sure they are not an upgrade. So it's just pick the lesser of the evils. But, the may be better than the yellow/orange/red things we had before.

CAB Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I was actually gonna start a topic on this yesterday, but I got sidetracked, so I guess you beat me to it. Personally, I would love to see #1 be chosen; after all, it is the state bird and I like that it is more colorful than the others. I pray to God that they don't choose #2, I mean seriously? A black and white gradient would be real exciting. #3 would probably be my second choice, because I love going to the capitol building, and it at least contains something that would tell you the car is from Nebraska. On #4 I have pretty much the same opinion as #3, no gradients.For me it goes like this:1- Western Meadowlark2- State Capitol Building3- blue w/ Nebraska outline4- black and white gradient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 License plates should be standardized... enough with the advertisements for websites, visitors bureaus, etc.A simple two-letter state ID (possibly stacked so they only take up one character width) and then a number. With the state clearly identified by the abbreviation, they could be made available in a variety of colors per state.That way, you could get one that matches your car, instead of some wild design that clashes with your car's color. I'll never, ever, ever, ever, EVER understand the need for each state to have their own "flashy" license plate.
