    For those of you using Image Verification to block spambots, what options do you have set? I have them all ticked except Random Shapes, which I feel makes it too hard to decipher. Which would provide the best balance between readability and blocking bots? Also, for those of you who use a custom font, how do you deal with it if the font is too wide?

    Like: a bird, a flower, a building, etc, and you can add your own photos (and name them appropriately.).
