I will also release a new version of akocomment, and resolve the logged in user bugs that many people have reported me.

release 2.2.0 to be released soon

• All - Security patches: add missing index.html and PHP missing header: defined( '_VALID_MOS' ) or die( 'Direct Access to this location is not allowed.' );
• Plugin core is now able to output image to PNG, JPG or GIF selection in admin core settings
• Plugin core is now able to limit the reload tentative of the users, retry counter is stored in user session. If user reload picture more than Retry in tab Text
  
• Plugin core has a new switch: Use extended charset in image: ex: +*%&/()=?!$?@#...true or false
• Plugin core is now able to output align text in image using 4 strategies:

  System font with random character position
  TTFonts with random character position The best for me, OCR is more difficult
  TTFonts with linear character position (Default setting)
  Random	Above 3 in a random order.

• All - Patches for Login/registration Joomla framework as file in /patches/ You have either:
  • To modify joomla files manually y following steps below OR
  • Copy already patched file (Joomla 1.0.3) to the server at the right place
• All - Bug in function getSecurityImageField($textid) the javascript was not boostraped, no influence but bug was revealed when doing login integration
• All - General Settings: It is now possible to display selectively the reload or sound button.
• com_contact, if user failed to enter the right captcha, he lost his data. This is not a bug but more a functionnalities not existing in Joomla -> the form with history back is always initialize with empty fileds in Mozilla Firefox, while in IE it is working
• Plugin All - Bug if logs are activated, php code logger.php was not included into the delegate plugins/xx/yy/checker.php
• All - New Tab in "General settings" called "Joomla-Patches" this let You swicth on or off the use of security images in login, registration.
• Plugin core - Bug correct the contrast of 2 images bg-L-5.png and bg-L-18.png : there were too dark!
• All - A new menu entry "Check if latest version" has been add, I only have to finish the server code.-> it is not working right now but soon.

Com security image with be shipped soon with a patch for Joomla 1.03 which also modify the login and registration process, see screenshots below....

in module login:

in component registration

in component registration, lost password

The more background, the more fonts, the difficult for a robot to do an OCR on pictures....I was thinking of doing automating search on Google images and randomize the background but Google forbid such kind of misuse of thiers services (I understand that)

Security images 2.0 soon to be release
