Default license plates in posted pics

hey all,

i'm happy you all like my pics. quick question tho - do you guys want all the license plates removed? i noticed not everyone does it and other forums i've been to it's been a courtesy. i only ask because it's a bit of a pain in the *** to do, and i take less pics (and photoshop even less) because of it.

if there's a general consensus that plates are ok to be shown, i'll take and post more pics (yes, i realize if there is a small minority that doesn't want their plates show, this will make them ever more pissed off).

what's your opinion?

Anyone can walk up to your car get the vin or plate and get a UVIP at the MTO. So your probably exposed to more criminals in your daily travels than here.

IMO, It's a good idea to 'shop out the plates... I'm sure if you really wanted to
get the address to which the plate is registered to (and probably where the car is
parked), you could find it.

Agreed that it's a pain in the ***! Adobe needs to add a Car Forum Plate filter..ha

if you take pics at the track it is recommended to remove the plates from the pics.
