Yes, significantly more clear. :)

Those are reasonable yes.

Now to take AvWolf's Captcha example, merge it with these forgrounds and backgrounds, and do a little masking ^_^

And here's the funny part.... I've never coded in PHP in my life and yet I'll get it done ^_^

PHP's easy. It has a function to do anything, C/C++-like syntax, and pretty much steals any useful idea from other languages that the developers thought they could implement. :P

I don't know how bots read those things, but it seems too easy...

(sorry for rezzing, but I really want to say something about this >.<)


On the other had, those are very easily deciphered by a bot. Blur it and increase the contrast. Then use your standard picture->text tools.

The only problem I cannot solve, is how a bot decides which method to use to preprocess an image so it can be more easily deciphered by a program.
Thus the ultimate captcha is just "take a random captcha generator and use that to generate the image".

Variations are always desirable with captchas.
Multiple fonts, random distortions, and more...
