I had a really nice system for this but decided to scrap it in favor of random values... The future may show a very different ACP configuration page for CAPTCHA settings
You can still get uniqueness, the Occlude and 3D Bitmap policies are disabled by default.

Re: New CAPTCHA
I got locked out and requested a new password ... so I get the password and go to log in but have "exceeded the number of login attempts". So login wanted me to do the CAPTCHA. It took me 4 tries to finally get one correct. This isn't a *beep*, just feedback and wondering if the hot & sweaty masses will have my virtuous patiencedhn wrote: The Captcha is still being worked upon.
Re: New CAPTCHA

ø = 1.618033988749895...
Everything has ø in it

Still, it does hurt the eyes sometimes just knowing it's there.
Re: New CAPTCHA
If you treat each symbol as a seperate image, PHP's imagerotate() function will be sufficiant, won't it? Slowing the process down offcourse, but increasing security..DavidMJ wrote:I think it is harder than you think If you think otherwise, try doing it programmaticallyspambot wrote: I think the symbols on the right should be slightly rotated, since matching the two squares in this example is enough to decode the image.
Re: New CAPTCHA
I was refering to trying to break it, not rotating it. It is very easy to get rotation on those images.spambot wrote:If you treat each symbol as a seperate image, PHP's imagerotate() function will be sufficiant, won't it?

Re: New CAPTCHA
Ah, that makes sence
Well, I have no experience at all with OCR.. But if it can detect letters so easily, why not matching those symbols?

Re: New CAPTCHA
Hey, we've got something that is actually decipherable, so can we please think about how to improve readability and not about how to increase the difficulty?

What! You mean you cannot read that: 1 - U - 9 is that a W? WTF! 8 - I (I think) - A - that wasn't so hard.naderman wrote: Hey, we've got something that is actually decipherable, so can we please think about how to improve readability and not about how to increase the difficulty?
