A suggestion: use DP forum log in for some of the DP tools

    This was just a thought I had--it's kind of tedious to enter in the CAPTCHA every time you're using the DP suggestion tool, so I was thinking it would be really nice if there were a way users that are logged into the DP forums were exempt from this... If you're worried about logged in users abusing the tool or hitting it with scripts/bots you could always limit it to like 150 queries a day for registered users before a captcha were required again.

    Anyway just a thought that would make the tool more convenient :)

    I agree to this. It would really be convenient if that would happen. :D

    I believe if you contribute to the server fund you won't have that problem. Let me go check.

    The following is taken from http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/donate.html

    $150 donation will also give you some added functionality on the tools:
    Keyword suggestion tool has no image verification
    Keyword tracker will automatically run a "check all" for your keywords (as long as you look at your account once a week)

    No....$50 just gives you the user name title change

    The $150 gives you the extra options :)

    If you donate $150 to fund the DP servers you skip the CAPTCHA. That in itself is worth donating.

    Cool, I'd totally forgotten about the server drive... I'll probably do that soon just to support DP, but it still might be nice for everyone to have the convenience of avoiding the captcha.

    I don't have problems with captcha. I think you will only require to see the captcha code every few (15?) minutes of inactivity of using the tool.
