Best: NZ - very funky. Honorable mention to BD.
Worst: AC's elite design 2003, UA's for being boring
I also like the redesigned SQ cards; the non-PPS ones were horrid before (though not blindingly ugly like AC's new batch of elite cards). The BD cards have grown on me since I first saw them. I like them now.

Uniforms
Best: SQ - I must admit, they are gorgeous.
Worst: SK shorthaul - the poor women have to wear grey sacks!
True for SQ female uniforms, I think false for the male uniforms. The powder-blue blazers never cease to leave me aghast (and embarrassed for the lower-rung male FAs).

Best: BD by miles. I quite like US as well, and am fond of NZ's (probably only because of moments seeing it in foreign airports and being reminded of home). SK and LH are both very plain but quite smart, especially on their larger a/c.
Middle of the road: TG, SQ, UA (old & new)
Worst: OZ is pretty bad, OS is probably the dullest, new AC livery is the tackiest (I quite like the old one, though, especially on an A340).
I'd add the new TG livery (posted in the TG forum) to the worst list. Yuck.
One more category:
best catalogue. My vote goes to LH (although SQ is a very close second, as shown by healthy additions to my KF account after my trips to Asia).
