I think they work fine! The only problem is that they can loose caracter, when applied black and white (monochrome).

Transparency is possible today, but keep in mind that not long ago this was a printing nightmare. Besides the [gone] printing issues, this also limits the available supports (e.g. for placing the logo on a building's façade).

Transparency can be used in building signage. During my time at an exhibit house we made plenty of 3-D facade logos which included transparency. This was in 2003 just as the Rigid Print flatbeds were being introduced to the market.
One would imagine as these machine have found their ways into production houses transparent elements are even easier to create today. Secondly with UV clear film printed on a wide format followed by 2nd surface sandwich mounting between plex and sealed against elements is another way for large scale facade logos.
