Reading images can still be automated, it just takes a lot more time to write a program to do so. A simple paragraph with text would be easy (relatively speaking) for a program to decipher and automatically answer. That's why you make the image "screwy"... the letters are tilted, overlapping, wavy, colored, or complex backgrounds, etc. Even the best of those images can be read by computer programs, though, although very few people would be able to write that program.
