It's a Wordpress plugin called Secure Image, you can find it here: http://dev.wp-plugins.org/wiki/SecureImage It's just one solution out of many. You can find other antispam plugins for WP here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins/Spam_Tools Hope this helps :) Hahahaha oh no…please don’t expand my ego :P

I was fascinated by learned helplessness when I first read about it. It made me realize how important a sense of control is for a healthy state of mind, and made it obvious to me how some people learn to be helpless with the crazy conditioning they get from all quarters, eg. being rewarded and punished for the same behavior unpredictably. I'll definitely explore this subject more. Thanks for the links :) P.S. Sorry about the code...it's not that great, but so far it's the only WP plugin I've seen that does the code thing, which is a big help against spammers. Anyone else facing the same problem? Thanks Matt!

Hee... the playful mind of my will think "well hack, jst use the the patches as a texture wall and design that face of the wall to some fun and interesting look." A good situation to extend creativity. haha... Well for my case, my dad came up with a method to cover the patches and case was solved. heee.... guess things jst happen to fall into place at times. :) Hi Alvin,
