Also I have a request for those who are decent at graphics, If you have some free time could you make new images for the hack and post them here as a graphic pack? The demo images in the zip arent that good, I quickly made them, the only requirements are that they are readable by the human eye but arent readable by bots. So dont use common fonts and so on, also make sure the fonts you use have unique characters, for example, dont use a font where more then one character looks alie, like the number one, capital I and lowercase L, thank you in advance.

Yeah, I thought of that, but most people register under Revision 3 (being default) so it doesn't matter too much. Most hacks I've been installing within the last 3 months have only had changes to my latest style, since I'm not really fond of the other styles anymore... not to mention they are rarely used.

I got it installed, yet it shows up as a broken image. it also says Also note that the text is "cao" sensitive.

Its a typo, it should be "case", right click on the image and click properties and then copy and paste the full url into your browser and tell me what the error you get

I installed this and I also get this error:
Quote:

Invalid image code for verification, press back and please try again
I saw this posted:

Also for some reason when i press agree and try to register it says invalid image code and what not yet it doesn't even go to the register page. Also there is no cache folder...
and I also have no cache folder and I cannot find anywhere that is says where it is supposed to go....if it is supposed to go in the images/verify directory....why does the images and verify directories not have to be chmodded to 777 as well?

I saw this posted right after:

I'm having the same problem as Ferny72, except I created the cache folder in the right place manually and CHMODed it. It still displays the invalid image code message after clicking Agree
and this was the reply:

Hmm, does the image get an error and not get displayed ot when you click register you get the error?

If its a error with register it could be that you entered the wrong vakue, the code is cap sensitive so Test isnt the same as test, if you have php try going to the verify table in the database and find your hash and copy and paste the value from it and see if that works, If not, ill see whats wrong
this does not address the issue of the error mentioned at all nor where the cache folder is supposed to go.

then I saw this posted:

Slynderdale, when I installed it the first time the text to replace in register.php was present three times, and as I suspected this is where I messed up. I downloaded the updated text file, did the edits for register.php again and now it works flawlessly. Thanks!
I didn't see anything telling me to find something three times when I ran the installer

and the reply to that was:
Quote:

Alright, great to hear, thats what i thought was wrong with it
where in the instructions does it say to find something three times?

my question is.....what do I do now.....I get the same error as a couple other people and I do not know what to do to solve it and I do not know where to create the cache folder since the instructions do not mention it other than what to chmod it to.

please help me

also...in the images...the upper case "O" is exactly the same as the zero...how will anyone know which one is there?

Does the name of the image file match the characters in the image? If it does, you may want to hash the file name.

Thinking about installing this, but just curious ... is there much of a problem with automated registerations on vB forums? Because I've never even heard of such a problem?

You might as well be safe then sorry.

Yes, the name of the image file does match the chracter in the image, but the url used to point to the imagegen.php file hashes both the user session and the image file session, so theres no need to hash the names of the image files.
