Matt, you know, and I know It won't. but we've already pointed that out to them. There is some mods they can install to check against the stopforumspam database, and project honeypot database. These will help but won't stop everything.

Captcha should be done at the point of registration only, and not once they are in IMO. Otherwise it messes things up for everyone, as it's doing now. Let's face it, if the spammer is human, and they get through the captcha on registration, then they will also get through the captcha in the gallery.
