Further Progress Update On Gaptcha

Update2: The source is now live! 

Update: It's now live! Thanks for the support everyone :)

It's working! It's all working and there's only a couple of tiny issues left to fix!

That is, it's working on my local machine :)

While developing, I've been setting each Gaptcha image's alt text to the description, so I need to turn that off. Also, if you get the Gaptcha selections wrong, you lose your comment :( But besides that, it all works!

I've even taken some pictures:

These will be the ones that go live (I've got about 15 done all up so far) but they'll be updated over time as people complain that they can't tell what they are :) 

All I've really got left to do is to work what files I've modified so that I can upload them to the live server.

LOL, this is such a funny idea! While you might get some criticism over your idea, I think that it is very innovative.

Quite interesting and quite innovative I must say. It's actually quite fun to play with, but you have gotta have a whole lot of photos!

Geoff Appleby said:

Thanks Tom. But actually, you don't really need that many. For my setup, 9 would be enough. Realistically, 6 or 4 would do too. I've added a fair few, but only for fun :)
