I was thinking you were talking about avatars! I was thinking of adding one of those to RCG, but the reality is that I don't end up with much spam EXCEPT when Akismet goes down (It has only happened twice in this past year!). Ahhh…

Greg Swann added the "verification" thing and he has easy to read numbers, except there's a white line drawn through the middle of them, which sometimes makes some of the numbers hard to define. Blogger (I think it's blogger) has crazy mixed uppe rand lower case letters with numbers mixed in and all squiggly and scrip and hard to read. Active Rain has Words! Real live words! like banana and carrot and celery. Easy to read. No lines drawn threw them. No squigleys. It's the word you have to enter in the box before you can post a comment, so it knows you aren't a spam comment robot. Dustin,

Yeah, I guess hell IS freezing over. 1) I love the sites that have a real words like banana or carrot as comment identifiers, instead of squigly letters and numbers waving at me. Shoot...there was something I wanted to ask Robbie. Oh well, can't keep those techie things in my head. I'll have to jot it down on the wall so he sees it at the "Holiday Party"...date coming soon.
