Dear Monks,

I've been having problems with Catalyst::Plugin::Captcha, I've read the manual over and over again but can't seem to get it working.

It does produce an image to my registration page, but the image is all black. I've been digging through the internet looking for some documentations and everything but there isn't any.

Do you know what might cause this?. below is my configuration, captcha method and html file. 
__PACKAGE__->config->{captcha} = {
    session_name => 'captcha_string',
    new => {
      width => 80,
      height => 30,
      lines => 1,
      gd_font => 'giant',
    },
    create => [qw/normal rect/],
    particle => [100],
    out => {force => 'jpeg'}
  };

this is in Root.pm. 
sub captcha : Local {
        my ($self, $c) = @_;
        $c->create_captcha();
}

[download]
I called it like this in my html file. 
<img src="/captcha">

It always produces a black image, I'm confused on what causes this.

Thank you for the help in advance, I appreciate it.
