Mylopikch - graceful protection against spambots.

Two months ago, doing evening surfing, I accidentally came across a blog of an interesting LJ user, a certain sheller888 . Actually, his blog was interesting because it contained a fairly large number of ideas from various web services. There I came across the idea of ​​creating an analogue of a foreign service, the E-Mail Icon Generator . Having conducted a small survey among my contacts about the relevance of this idea, I began to implement it. Thus, a month and a half later, a project appeared with the unlucky name “ Mylopikch ”.
Initially, the concept was to give visitors the opportunity to independently enter an e-mail service provider. This option had both “+” and “-”. The first stone I stumbled about was some sort of grayness and routine generated image. Having a little experimented with different styles of design, I realized that I would not put such a picture in my own signature, it looked too miserable. Next, knowledgeable people hinted at a fairly simple recognition of such a gif-ki by e-mail collectors. Taking into account these two facts, it was decided to slightly change the concept of the project.
At the moment, "Mylopikch" generates, in my opinion, quite nice looking icons, which, among other things, they complicate the work of "harvesters" a little:

Now in the database of the fifteen most popular email providers. "Mylopikch" works in beta testing. Together we are looking for all sorts of bugs and flaws. I would be glad if any of you join. I am also always happy to hear criticism and suggestions :)
For the future, it is planned to introduce a number of new functions, including the ability for visitors to add an email provider to the database, of course, with pre-moderation. This function would allow melopikchi to be reproduced not only by users of large mail services, but also by ordinary corporate and entertainment resources that provide a mailbox registration service.
I will be glad to hear opinions, wishes, remarks and ideas of habraluda.
