629344 I wrote a message this morning to another goodreads member and I was prompted to type in the letters from a little image box. Also good. However, I typed them in in Uppercase text and the verification failed. Tried again on a new message. Same problem. When I typed them in lower case, it passed. Since the image has them in Uppercase, I think it should be consistent, or you might provide instructions that the text should be entered in lower case.

Thanks,
Elizabeth

1 Hmm... I just checked and they are case-insensitive. Perhaps the first was just hard to read? Captcha can be very annoying, but it is necessary to cut down on spam.
