Feedback problems solved

In the last month I upgraded the feedback systems at modecideas.com with forms from http://emailmeform.com
It's a very secure arrangement with a captcha system that requires human visual read and code entry that varies randomly each time.

When it was complete a problem arose with people deliberately sitting down to send junk by hand. It is about the only way anyone could get around this type of security. Never mind- when suspicious activity occurs, the system reports the IP addresses to the site owner. The owner then forwards the feedback to the support staff and the kiddies are blocked off. Meanwhile feedback remains available to all genuine site visitors. Neat, isn't it?

    Hooray for this one. You got it fixed.
