It doesn't have to be TOO hard. I use one with no backgrounds, just a cross fade and a little squiggling. Take a look: http://rsvptracker.com/person-new.cfm It's definitely a "low strength" captcha, since I doesn't mess with the background. Code is super easy: <CFSET randomWord=""> <CFLOOP index = "i" from="1" to="4"> <CFSET randomWord="#randomWord##chr(65+RandRange(0,25))#"> </CFLOOP> <CFSET filename="#createUUid()#"> <CFFILE action="APPEND" file="#gBaseDirectory#captchas\#filename#.txt" output="#randomWord#" addNewLine="Yes"> <cfx_captcha height="70" width="300" background_image="" text="#randomWord#" outfile="#gBaseDirectory#captchas\#filename#.jpg" font="Arial" font_color="white" fontsize="50" distortion_method="1" font_opacity="80" quality="80" bgcolor1="##ff0000" bgcolor2="##0000ff"> <CFOUTPUT> <INPUT type="hidden" name="captchaFilename" value="#filename#"> and so on.... >But what's the point for the spammer of doing it? Yes, that's still quite a mystery!
