    I thought you'd be getting a blog at some point - a nice first introductory post and an excellent method of getting recurring visitors... question is how do i go about getting my Looks Like phpLD 3.2.0 template listed??? Is there going to be a fee for template listings???

    Me also thinks you might be splurging out on blog promotion now ;)

    Some great advice some not so great, it might have been even better if you'd not assume everyone on this forum uses any one particular script though which is what it seemed. Rewording some tips to 'for those who have scripts that don't already have deep links built in you should get one', or 'for those with shitty captcha, either get a script that has a simple but bot proof captcha or use the method you described' and so on would have made the read more appealing to the wider audience perhaps?

    If you can ignore that and look at the wider picture like I did though it was nice work, well done. :)

    I am happy to make a little tweak to reflect your comment about scripts that already provide deep links. It has been done. However, I don't agree with your captcha comment. Any image validation is unwise, no matter how easy it is, IMO.
