Spotted Point Cook Town Centre just now:

ps, how does one blurry out a number plate? (& why?)

blur out a number plate? probably to stop the red light cameras from catching ur rego. theres people who put certain sprays and what not for the flash to reflect back, but its pretty risky.

he means online images...

some people dont like their rego shown with their modifications in visible in the picture for 2 reasons:

1: you are showing where a vehicle may regularly park, and thus increase your risk of 'online shoppers' (thieves) hunting your vehicle down.
2: you are showing the rego of a vehicle with possible illegal modifications that may attract other unwanted attention (police).

To blur out the photo, simply open the image with "paint" and draw over the plate and resave the image and upload. Its more a courtesy thing. Some dont care, some do. But being that you potentially dont know the owner, its just a nice thing to do.

Think he means on the forum...

MGV
People do it in fear of police or insurance companies or dealerships identifing there cars doing illegal modifications or something that might void warrenty etc.
Just use paint or Photoshop or similar before uploading

Edit: beaten :p
