		   Volkan, thank you for continuing to contribute your time and insight to this list.  That is so simple, yet effective...

   Hey, for even more fun, you could alter the spacing and punctuation of the answers when you shuffle them!

Cheers,

Peter

You can use a non-image alternative: Like a randomly generated 5-choice
questionare.
The questionare should be dead simple for humans but hard to translate for a
spambot.
something like:

"
to proceed please answer the following question:
(a brief explanation why this question is a plus:
there are bots imitating humans and this dumb questionaire helps get rid of
them etc. etc.)

Where do people store books?
- grocery store
- shelf
- refrigerator
- all of the above
- none of the above
"

Make sure to swap the correct choice and the question so that it cannot be
guessed by mere brute force.

HTH
