In an effort to block automated spam comments from our articles, we have adopted an image auth system. In short when commenting you will be presented with an image containing some random “case sensitive” text. In order to submit your comment, you must first type the text contained in the image into the text box below it.
We’ve been meaning to do this for about six months now as the amount of comment spam we were having to delete each week was getting ridiculous. We hope it doesn’t inconvenience anyone too much.

Well, in our case, we modified a CMS (content management system) program to look like our site, and now most of it is dynamically generated from databases.
Do a search for CMS and you’ll get lots of options.
