Word Verification Turned Off
Some participants in Transcriber have had issues with the "verification" system. I have turned it off and will leave it off unless the amount of spam becomes overwhelming.
All comments/submissions have to be approved by me. Any rendering of the word/name is approved unless the submission is clearly spam. I don't "judge" anyone's guesses.
So go ahead and guess all you want ;-)
Thanks.
Michael

We've Caught Up!
I got a little behind with posting images and answers on the Transcriber blog. Images are all current through today.
We'll post all the answers for the last week or so of images late in the day on 7 May, so take a look and make your guesses.
And thanks for your support and feel free to let others know about Transcriber.
