Thanks to the efforts of the good people at ReCaptcha.net, we’re now able to stem the tide of abuse/junk coming in via our Fotobroker request and feedback forms.

To quote from ReCaptcha’s website :
“A CAPTCHA is a program that can tell whether its user is a human or a computer. You’ve probably seen them — colorful images with distorted text at the bottom of Web registration forms. CAPTCHAs are used by many websites to prevent abuse from “bots, “ or automated programs usually written to generate spam. No computer program can read distorted text as well as humans can, so bots cannot navigate sites protected by CAPTCHAs.”

If you’ve got any questions, please let us know. About half of our customers have this in place already on their forms – and we’ll add others as the spammers find them. We were reluctant to make this change – as it’s our contention that anything that comes between our us and our customers (and yours) isn’t good, but the volume of garbage was increasing beyond the level of an irritation, so… Thanks ReCaptcha!
