NY is letting the people vote on our new license plates. Not one good option in the group. -- (link)

I like the ones we have now which is a throwback to plates we had decades ago. These are all blah and I hate the use of excelsior on most. Not one good one to vote for. (www.nydailynews.com)

I like the background image on the last one. but the stripe and font on it are pretty bad. -- nm - Andie Aug 20, 06:50
Of the choices, I agree with the designer quoted in that the liberty hand between the characters is most symbolic - JaxSean Aug 20, 06:25 1
- I agree. The excelsior motto has been a part of the state forever, long before Stan Lee. Though it's obvious why someone would connect it to him -- nm - Krusty Aug 20, 06:40
They did that here a few years ago. I just voted for the one I like the colors most on. -- nm - Spawn Aug 20, 06:02

Top Right is the only mildly decent one. -- nm - Qale Aug 20, 05:39 1
- I like that one the most but the bridge is an issue. It's the Tappan Zee Bridge which Gov. Cuomo renamed after his father. No one not in his pocket - Krusty Aug 20, 05:46
Lower left is probably my favorite, but it's a weak favorite. - Will Hunting Aug 20, 05:37 2
- That your state being shaped like a chunky dash makes it work better. I think the Statue of Liberty arm with the torch might work well as the divider -- (edited) - Krusty Aug 20, 05:40 1
  - But get rid of that Latin and any other writing. It can't be read unless you're up close and just works to clutter things up. -- nm - Krusty Aug 20, 05:42

I don't really like the current plates but none of these new ones are really good either. - ty97 Aug 20, 05:34 8
- I like the one with the Tappan Zee Bridge but I'm not voting for that one because of the name change and that Cuomo likely wants that one. - Krusty Aug 20, 05:38 5

  - I think I like the last one because it at least has the falls on it and isn't 100% NYC related. - ty97 Aug 20, 05:43 3
    - It does have a mix of upstate and the city but is still so ugly. They should go back to the drawing board with this. -- nm - Krusty Aug 20, 05:47 2
      - I liked the plates they but out in the 80s -- nm - ty97 Aug 20, 05:51 1
        
        The white ones with the Statue of Liberty in the middle? They were okay. I'm a big fan of the throwback yellow/orange ones we have now but would -- (edited) - Krusty Aug 20, 06:12

  - Yup. See my post above. I like that one but not with that bridge. Of all the bridges in the state that's the one they chose? Shady! -- (edited) - Krusty Aug 20, 05:39
