[QUOTE="Drago the Wolf, post: 1306370, member: 22476"]Well, Travis and Jason, Do either of you like the new colorized $100 bill that may never make it into our hands, at the rate its going? :D I disagree with not redesigning the $2 (and $1 bill if we keep it). I would love to see a colorized, big head $1 and $2 bill, and I also would have liked to have seen non-colorized big head $1 and $2 bills with the first redesign. Like I said, back in 1996, when they started the first redesign, there were plans to redesign the $1 and $2 bills, and I can not, for the life of me, understand just "why" they scrapped those plans, and I was very disappointed when I found out, but as for the $1 bill, I believe it had to do with the vending induustry and small businesses, who complained about all of the dollar bill readers that took only $1 bills that they would have to reprogram for a new design, and some machines would have to be scrapped, because they could not be reprogramed.
