Team Adam's Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Interesting writeup about blurring out your plate in pictures... Should You Bother Obscuring Your License Plates In Photos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Hmmm interesting. I get all my clients permission to use the photos of their vehicles after I finish them. On the plus side I usually take the plates off for the detail so it doesn't really matter anymore. Good article though. Thanks Dylan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Slow Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 If it was just me I wouldn't blur, but I have two precious reasons to blur. Call me paranoid but they're my first priority. If I'm showing off a side detail job I will blur or remove the plates first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacificNWBuckeye Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I always cut out and replace the plates in my pics. I know they are one display when the cars are outside, but that is local. The pics I put up can be seen anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAYBEN Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I never figured it was worth blurring my plates.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I drive my car in the public... If someone wants my plate number badly enough, they'll steal it any way they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbeard Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I can see both sides. I've never blurred my plate, but I'm also not likely to show rear shots of my vehicles in the first place (simply because 3/4 and profiles shots look better). But it's no big deal to block the plate if you want to. As long as you're posting digital pics, it's not hard to use something as basic as a black line from MS Paint. Which brings up the question what are folks using for the cool swirl effect, Photoshop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbeard Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 After further research, I've found another option for hiding your plate online: This Is The Laziest Thing We've Ever Seen On Craigslist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nkcGTO Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I drive & park my car in a public place most times out of the day. The parking lot is in public eye, the internet is in public eye. Why should I blur out my plate when I post a picture but not when I park my car anywhere? If someone is going to do something illegal with my plate number they can get it assortment of ways. Lately here in Overland Park Kansas; we know have cop cars fitted with cameras that feed images to a database to see if there are any hits in the system (warrants, tickets etc) the drive through the parking lot at corporate woods & surrounding areas looking for cars.
