Is it OK to check in a box that is not plain on the outside (e.g. there are printed pictures, etc. on the box)

Accepted answer
Yes, it's fine, I've shipped this baby as checked luggage multiple times:
They'll just stick the baggage label on the side.
My main concern was damage from baggage handling, getting wet, etc. Tape it shut carefully, and a plastic bag on the inside would not hurt. Ask for a fragile sticker at check-in, and they'll probably make you sign a disclaimer saying it's not the airline's problem if it breaks.
