The new Texas plate is similar, except instead of a smiling sun, we have a sunburnt redneck with a can of beer in one hand and a shotgun in the other.

According to local news, that plate was the result of a 2 year design process. 2 years!

Also, they're are a number of alternate plate styles KY residents will be able to choose from....for $50. Makes you wonder if the state government isn't using this as a way to get citizens to cough up an extra $50.

I presume altering a license plate by, say, painting over the smiley face, is illegal?

My dad was one of the advertising execs who had a hand in designing the old blue and white one with the foal and mare running.

I also remember the state having to spend some bucks for reflective tape to cover the Churchill spires because some folks complained that it endorsed gambling.

I think some Teletubbies romping in the green clouds/mountains/whatever across the bottom of the plate would really round out the design...
