Just upgraded from RC2 to RC3. Everything reported good, and the forum's working fine so far except for the CAPTCHA function. Sometimes the images are broken, sometimes not, very weird. I'm not seeing 404's or any other errors in the apache logs. I feel like a very confused forum admin.

...and I'm posting in the Support board in hopes I can find support. No offense but I'm not in the mood to gab on about the problem on the Discussion board.

This is your site?

I don't see captcha required on registration? Can you post a screenshot.

Re-enabled CAPTCHA for the screenshot. I'm leaving it off since it's not usable at this time. If you want me to turn it back on for troubleshooting please let me know.

Uploading the Themes/default/fonts directory might help. Looks like not all files were transferred.

I see this comment posted often as a solution to upgrade problems.. Maybe the upgrade script/ packages should do a md5 file check at the end of the upgrade to ensure the new files over wrote the old and all files where uploaded.

The files in the Themes/default/fonts directory match those in the smf install and upgrade packages. My backup taken before the upgrade shows no fonts directory.

The fonts directory is only in use by 1.1 RC3, so that could be true  ;)
