in thread Is there a CPAN module that distorts an image to make it only human-readable?

They often have an accompanying link that does some audio thing (I've never clicked it) for the benefit of vision-impaired folk, which at least decreases the pool of people it stops.

I imagine flash-heavy sites are much more of a problem for the average disabled web surfer.

    Flash is a problem for many reasons, but if your audience has the flash player installed, it can be used to create an accessible interface (with keyboard commands, alternatives for images etc). At least, that's what I've been told by some people who spend a lot of time creating websites for an institute for the blind. I haven't really been interested in flash enough to try it myself, though.
