I like the transparent sticks. As long as the tape stays on the plexiglass, even if the colors fade and the name is unreadable, the raised letters would come to life with putting paper over the label and rubbing a pencil across it. Of course the name would then be on the paper but then a new lable could be made and applied to the plexiglass post. I'm also wondering about the effects of a year or two of sun, rain, freezing temperatures and whatever else nature throws at it. The sticky might not remain sticky.
