I try to create a Slashdot account using the Lynx 2.8.3
web browser.
I enter the following into the form:

Nick Name: Section 508
Real Email: section508@pineight.com
[X] Replies to my comments will be mailed to me
[ ] Send me the newsletter
[ ] Send me the daily headlines
My timezone is [-0500 Eastern_____________________]

To confirm you're not a script,
please type the text shown in this image: (random
letters) ________

The random letters do not appear in Lynx. I tried typing
"(random letters)" in the field next to (random
letters), but on
submit, it produced only "You failed to confirm you are
a human."

Is there a way for a user of Lynx, or any other person
who cannot
view GIF images, to create an account on slashdot.org
or any other
Slashcode server that uses HumanConf?

    Sure, what do you want? an AudioConf module? Patches are
    accepted!
