Hi Ankit, this far, it works for most environment. I noticed you missed one directory here http://www.proxy-list.in/includes/libs/animatedcaptcha_temp/
You don’t have that directory. It should exist. Try to create that.

It still din’t work. Its still showing up just a blank page. I tried my level best in rebuilding the whole configuration for the account but its still the same. Does it requires any more special configuration to be done apart from GD library and mod_rewrite. Did it work for anyone else as I couldn’t find anyone else complainting for the same here.

Hi Ankit.
I have looked at your website.
I saw nothing there. Still have no idea what causes that at this moment, but let’s try to use more simple captcha (without background, etc).
Open your animatedcaptcha.php, and set line 40-43 into.

$img->use_background(false);// use background ?
$img->use_distortion(false);// distort image ?
$img->distortion_type(‘normal’);// normal | slice | wave | random
$img->use_grid(false);

Thanks alot xrvel for guiding through this tutorial. I did try both the methods and I’m sure that GD Library and mod_rewrite both are activated on my server as I’ve a private server with many such scripts installed using both these functions. When I goto animatedcaptcha.php or animatedcaptcha.gif I just get a blank page with nothing being displayed on it. You can have a look at it yourself at www. proxy-list. in/animatedcaptcha.php
