I liked the contest very much. I didn't contribute much to it though.
But the spam registrations that flood me, and I assume all other
admins, are too numerous to even look at. I hate all the "security"
measures, but I suppose it is time to add one of those "letters in
image" kind of thing for the registration page. Matthias, do you have
such a plugin to install?
