One problem down! Registration should work once again. :)

No wonder nobody has registered lately! Something broke somehow and the anti-spam CAPTCHA image didn't display on the registration form. It would still speak the magic code out loud but no image.

I couldn't figure out what went wrong or how to fix it. So I got around the problem by installing a new mod, reCaptcha. This one is a bit harder to deal with but at least the image is showing.

I turned off the Captcha thing for a few minutes and 3 spambots registered! Man, they must use a lot of bandwidth. They must continually try all forums all day long to have caught us in the few minutes we were unprotected. But we were right there and deleted them before they could verify their accounts.
