One thing that annoys me with in-memory images is that you have to change your urls.py, and I want the CaptchaField as unobtrusive as possible. Furthermore this method needs some kind of session data stored somewhere, and therefore also cookies. All this annoys me a bit, to be honest. > Characters that can confuse users have been removed from this set.

Although I already have used an incomplete alphabet for this, it seems natural that developers want to use their own "alphabet" - which might be only digits, and no characters. So I made a nice configuration possibility for my captcha module. You can define it in your settings.py, and also adjust individual forms, if you wish. > 3. No "twists" are applied to characters.

You can specify rotation, sizes, vertical positions and other values according to your needs. The only thing that is not so elegant is: all characters are aligned on top. That means that a lowercase character might look as if it is superscript. If you only use uppercase and numbers, then this is no problem. (BTW: The user can enter only lowercase characters - the captcha test is also successful, even if the image also shows uppercase characters) > I really hope your module gets included in contrib since I really like > the "one standard way" for doing things approach. Me too! There is a significantly updated version available now: http://django.agami.at/captchatest/ - with download, docs and demo ("reload" the page, if you have already been there...) * The old version had a bug in not removing outdated captchas. FIXED * new configuration options * save as gif image with adaptive color palette to minimize filespace. if it*s not possible to save as gif, it falls back to jpg. (I had a problem on FreeBSD with gif images) * there is now an "iterations" option - which writes many captchas over each other for testing purposes. (so you can adjust width and height of your captcha according to your font settings) Hope you like it, Martin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
