Hi Fletch,

What version of WordPress are you using?

Did you activate the plugin (Plugins menu)? If the Manage > Custom anti-spam menu doesnâ€™t show up itâ€™s because the plugin hasnâ€™t been activated.

NO it was my own stupidity. Ever time I checked that menu, I had it deactivated apparently (I was flipping back and forth). I found it..found the problem (the library) and all is well. My computer came with a form of debian and by reading other posts realizing that that their package manager doesn't always install everything it should. Their Wordpress installs *parts* of mysql- and no GD library.
I am just tinkering around with one of those $199.00 walmart pc's and having to learn the debian way. Not bad just different than what I am used to.
Sorry to bother you,
Fletch

Same problems here with new install. And per the docs
"Check Manage > Custom anti-spam"
This doesn't exist in my version of wp. Any suggestions for alternate plug-ins that are plug and play? Thanks!

I had the exact same problem.
However, I switched in my php-gd config to use the php-bundled implemetation of gd instead of using the system gd library. Now it works like a charm :)
The bundled implemetation has a lot of extra features which I guess this plugin uses.

So, I guess it's server-specific.
Check your gd.ini.

Do you mean the image is not showing up at all or it is showing up as a broken image? If it is the first case, try the manual insert method, which involves editing your comment template.

Now I have a problem with it not displaying on my contact page and faq page with Wordpress 2.3.1. And I didn't used to, using WordPress 2.2.3.
I had a server crash and got mad and moved my site to a different place, and of course installed this most wonderful of plugins. All the libraries etc. are there and it shows up in comments, but the pages aren't showing it, and it used to.
Right now I have 200+ "questions" sitting in my approve page for the faqs, and let's not even talk about my inbox.
Am I missing something here to set it to work with pages/contact forms? It used to work beautifully with them.

It's a server setting that I haven't been able to figure out :(

If anybody who has a similar problem is willing to give me temporary access to their site, I'll be happy to check it out.

That's a shame, because I have the same problem (WordPress latest version, hosted on MediaTemple). The plugin used to work when my site was hosted on DreamHost with a previous version of WordPress. I've had to remove the plugin because too many people couldn't see the image and they didn't see the alt text to listen to the audio.

For any readers, we continued this discussion via e-mail and couldn't figure out the problem :(
