Thanks for the suggestion, I will make the following changes * Typing of answer, rather than option number (let me know if bots can crack this too?) * Securing the questions and answers (How can we still translate the questions & answers?) -- With Regards Nischay Nahata B.tech 3rd year Department of Information Technology NITK,Surathkal

Learning from mistakes is the best way to train your brain in fixing problems. Open source will help you improve your skill: 1) publish your code to the public 2) get flaws exposed 3) Understand what is wrong 4) Fix / amend / rewrite 5) Repeat If the idea end up being totally wrong. Rethink about it, talk about it with other people and submit some new code :-) In the end: Profit!!! (please donate to your favorite foundation) I for one like the idea of making Captcha more meaningful to humans and harder to solve by bots. Congrats on your first extension! -- Antoine "hashar" Musso

Thanks for the tips Open Source is particularly helpful to students, we get to learn, contribute and also work on real stuff (things that get deployed). I am having a wonderful experience. On Wed, Mar 21, 2012 at 3:20 AM, Antoine Musso <hashar+wmf(a)free.fr> wrote:
