Pictcha is a very unique & secure CAPTCHA.

== Description ==

Pictcha is a protection in a form of an image retrieved from [UTYP engine](http://utyp.net/ "UTYP Main Page"), which can be embedded inside web forms, and which will filter out spams.
When someone uses UTYP Pictcha, the UTYP engine learns and gets more accurate.
