Hi all, I'm not sure whether or not this is PHP or not, though I'd assume so with the Dynamic Images and OOP.
I am currently implimenting user accounts on my website and to stop bots I was thinking of including a CAPTCHA image. Most people use generated images from the EZ-Gimpy program, but not all.
I was wondering how, using PHP with gd2 library, would/could I create a captcha like image with distorted background?
Or would I be better off using the pre-generated ones?
Thanks, Sam.

Pre-generated ones have the benefit of typically being a cut and paste solution.
Making your own, though, has benefits; you can modify them to suit your particular specifications on readability and difficulty.
If I were to go about doing this, I would create a large smeared image in Photoshop and save it. The CAPTCHA then randomly chooses two points in the image, crops to those two points, stretches or shrinks the image to fit in the size of the image you wish to produce (distortion), and then render multicolored text on top of it.

Let's say we're trying to keep blog and forum spammers out
of our site--we're not trying to protect fort knox.
1) Step one is a one-time-only step.
We create six different css files that define the
same six color names differently, but each such
css file assigns red to one and only
one of those same six color names, and then store
the six somewhere in the document_root.

Hi all,
wanted to ask about Captcha image! When should I used it? When there is
free text box to be filled? Should I use a Captcha when I have a page
with only click buttons? Can a bot "click a button"?
Sorry for asking some foolish questions.. I don't this is maybe not
related to asp.net but since its forms part of the web!
Thank you!

Hi,
I wanted to generate Captcha images(*) from Python and I couldn't find any module that
suited my needs so I made one myself.
It only needs PIL. (I used PIL 1.1.6)
It can generate images with a provided background or it can make a random background for
you. It needs a truetype font to draw the letters, and outputs jpeg images.

Hi,
I have a captcha script which should pick up a background image and add some random letters to it and re-display
This is the part of the form that the captcha image is part of:
<span >Verification Image:</span>
<span ><img src="captcha.php" id="captcha" />
<a href="#renew" onclick="javascript: document.getElementById('captcha').src = 'captcha.php?' + Math.random();">refresh</a> </span>

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
