That's awesome, but most sites don't do this because it dramatically
lowers the security of the captcha. Parsing html pages is easy enough,
from a programming standpoint, and if all these spammers had to look for
were image tag attributes they'd have the captcha subverted in seconds.
I'm not defending the current captcha situation--they frustrate the heck
out of me--but I wouldn't expect many other sites to adopt this method.

voiceover even gave me the pitch change so I knew which letters needed
to be capitalized. Wonder why no one else is doing that. The site was
