I like your solution - I imagine it's very tight! I decided to go with siding with the humans, however - I'm tired of squinting at twisted numbers and letters every time I want to submit a form, so I went with a simple 'pick the unique picture' system, and my web development clients say it's dramatically reduced the volume of spam, while gaining some pleasant comments from their customers on how easy it is to use!

I am having a hard time finding where the code actualy pulls in the .ttf files. I'm getting errors like: <code>Warning: imagettftext() [function.imagettftext]: Could not find/open font in /home/designb/public_html/php/capya.php on line 34</code> I am sorry if this is a dumb question...but any help would be awesome!!
