When Posting Pictures, edit out the license plate!
Its really simple, edit out the license plate. ppl want their privacy, but if ur gonna post it up, edit it out.
i dont appreciate all the calls, emails, pm's ive been getting from people about this.

I believe it's pro-active, not retro-active.
However, i could be wrong... what's done is done anyways.
SG, what about the plates of ppl who cut us off etc? as well as funny plates? :D

Don't understand how a license plate is a privacy issue, anyone walking/driving/riding past your car can see it..
Will be sure to eliminate plates in the future..

In BC, it's a non-issue. Ten years ago in Ontario you could have your insurance cancelled for a photo of your car online with plates. Modification? Cancelled. Track day? Cancelled. With the Government insurance, it's really not an issue in this province. Can't track a car to it's address without a cop who's illegally looking it up for you...but if it's the forum rules, it's the rules.

People want to see pics of there cars but want to make it harder to do. You can bet a lot of photographers will just not bother any more. I wont be bothering to post any more photos as I'm not wasting my time to edit out 100+ plates from ever car that's at a show. No to mention, a plat number does not get you any info unless you are cop/have access to a government run database.
IMO your parking in a public place, with a vehicle at an event where 9 out of 10 people are snapping pics. If you don't want photos of your car don't show up to a car show.
EDIT, seeing as this is in the Spotted thread I dont care as I dont take pics of random cars on the road. But if this applies to all photos then my statement still stands.

Is there an app for that?
I have never understood why people complain about it but oh well
More pictures of cars without front plates?

Thread is from so long ago and countless photos have been posted of peoples license plates uncensored with no warning or message to censor them.
The only ones that seem to get censored are people of post pictures of their own car or ones that take pictures for their portfolio. Plus if you were required to censor all license plates, gg to the shitty drivers thread where people post videos. Are we then suppose to censor out all the innocent cars that appear in videos? Cause no one has time for that.
We can all blame Trak3 for bumping this old thread though. Kappa
