Really? I like it a lot. It feels european.
200 BUCKS FOR BOARDWALK AVENUE
That's why I don't like it, the US Dollar has maintained a careful and traditional image for hundreds of years, out of all the main Western nations our money has changed the least drastically over the decades. I don't want plastic money with shiny aluminum strips and highlighter colors, it looks childish; I want a nice traditional US greenback. In fact when the new changes were proposed some security features like those found on European money where rejected because they would alter the appearance of the US Dollar too much.

Five is ok but that stupid giant purple 5 on the corner ruins it, so 5o and then the 1o.

I hate all of them, especially the five. It looks like toy money.
They should just make the whole bill colorful, like Euros. Those are some nice looking bills.

Out of the new US dollars, the $5, but I still don't find it too appealing.
I rather like:
