The Problem With the Delta 747s

Now, compare that with the old (er, still "current" on some aircraft) NWA livery:


Or still, compare that with the livery of Virgin Atlantic, another large international airline:


So, which livery is the hardest to read at a distance? And which livery is the least imaginative/creative? The answer to those questions should not be Delta, which is now the largest airline in the world.
