HOW something looks LIKE.
I’m missing two options:
- First, in the “why do you not like it” detail breakdown, “cheugy”. Some are trying so hard it’s painful to even read I’d rather have no motif at all instead.
- Secondly, why the hell does it all need to be one theme. We can have one thing on one note and another on another.
This, but generalised. I may even have over-generalised the term.
Second one is so checking fast is easy (ofc in most cases a more indepth one is a good idea anyway)
If every bill is way different someone might think you are trying to use monopoly money, and the guy using the fake money has extra time to get away with it
I was very afraid that the themes would have been heavily skewed towards things like landmarks, famous people and events, which would plunge the subsequent discussions about the designs into a cesspit of nationalist in-fighting, but I was actually pleasantly surprised by the presence of a number of more sensible options. Not necessarily good, but sensible at least.
I like the “hands” theme quite a lot, but it might come out a little bad on the graphical side if not well thought out. Still, hands and their symbolism has been present for centuries in Europe to depict values and moral concepts, both religious and secular, I think it could be the best idea to represent abstract European values. I bet that people will just choose the “pretty” option though, so I expect birds, also because it can once again be tied to nationalism.
Oof sounds like one employee there had a good idea (birds), but others were jealous and pushed to have multiple ideas and let citizens vote.
It’s going to be birds, Karen. Stop talking about your beach and grains of sand.
Yeah, of all the themes in there, birds is by far the best one. Birds are beautiful, there’s a link to Europe itself, it’s really hard to exclude anyone.
I just hope that pigeons don’t make it onto any denomination. Fucking pests.
No pictures :(
