OK fine. I wasn't gonna write more on this thread, but you all've now gone one
step too far. You all think it's fair to charge for computer things, I wasn't
gonna say anything more, but fine, you want my help on list any more? Pay me
and I'll offer my input. How's that, since all of you want me to pay for
services. Lookat! It's not about the quanity nor is it about the 18 cents.
It's about my opinion, just as you all're entitled to your opinions for this
discussion, does that not therefore give me the right of a different opinion?
I'm sick and tired of every time someone else on this list disagrees with
another member, it's overlooked. Yet, when I make even one little thing that
people disagree with, you chop off my cahoanis! So... if I get banned from the
list because of my decision to only go one way at this point, that's really not
my problem. It's the moderators' loss. I will say that however, I'm done with
offerring help. Maybe down the road I will, but at this time, you want help?
since you think help is so valueable and that blind people should pay for
things sighted folks don't have to, then perhaps you'll appreciate that I
refuse to help anyone else on or off list without being paid.
Happy now? Deal with it! For those who did appreciate my help, I apologize,
but blame it on the jerks who are not greatful for the help and knowledge one
can obtain.
For another thing: Windows has nothing to do with Apple, so trying to compare,
as you did isn't in my view a fair justification for your words, but since you
insist on going there. Yes, Brandon and others, You're damn straight! I do!
feel o c r should be free.
Should screen readers be free? Yes! Why do you think I hardly ever use JFW
anymore. God forbid, I'd rather use Orca, NVDA, or something open source.
Apple has put an immense! shit load of accessibility into their products, but
do they charge us extra but not charge sighted people equally to opporate their
products? I didn't? think so! OK, point made.
My rates are normally $15 an hour, which considerring most would charge upward
of 30 or higher, that's pretty darn cheap. So, if you want my help any
further, let me know and we'll arrange a payment. Otherwise thanks to you
all's bashing of me for the past few months straight, I'm not saying anything
more. You all figure it out yourselves! I wash my hands of helping you all!
Maybe I have a bad attitude, but dont' bash me, and you wont' have to then see
it! It's one thing to disagree, but it's entirely another to disagree and be
completely rude about it, as a ton of you are being.
Thank you kindly,

Hey,
I would totally understand what you are saying if the Captcha costed
something like $5 per image, but give me a break? It's only 18 cents. If you
have a successful business for blind people, you wouldn't have one with the
attitude you have. If you didn't charge anything, your business would go up in
smoke. HOw do you think Freedom Scientific does their development? If they did
everything for free, then there wouldn't be much for those that don't use a
Mac. I was a JAWS user until I got the Mac, and I would have been lost without
it.
Just because you are blind doesn't mean you should have everything given to
you for free. just call Humanware and talk to them. they would tell you the
same thing. Services like this charge hundreds for Braille note takers, and you
are complaining about 18 cents?
Those free Captcha services don't have a future as much because they are
free. I would appreciate that there is something that is inexpensive and will b
around for a while.
Being visually impaired, I think some things should be free, but i also think
some things should charge too. This is one of these things.
Thanks,
Christine

I don't mean to be rude, but why should we pay 18 cents per captcha just as
a result of being blind? Sighted people all day long can do these things
without having to pay.
Isn't this kind of unfair to exclude blind people as doing it for free when
there are services like Web Visum etc. that will do it for free? Granted, they
mainly only now work on Windows, for what it's worth, but the bottom line is,
as long as you can access them, they're free.
Thank you kindly,

Hello,
Not to advertise, but I run a captcha service that runs on any platform.
It is called ZCaptcha, and you can find it here: http://www.azavia.com/zcaptcha
It's all that I know of that works on the Mac. It is what I use myself.

Does anyone know if there's a captcha solving service for the mac yet?
I've done google searches for them and can't seem to find much, but found some
tool of sort called Rumola, that I can't get up and running, so I'm really glad
I didn't pay them after my free credits they give you run out.
It's supposed to auto-fill them, but it never did what it was supposed
to, so have no idea what to make of that, so if anyone knows of anything else,
I'd appreciate your feedback, sense I really don't want to have to go back to
my pc just to do this, and nothing else.
