If you wish to use captcha because of spam messages I would advice you to also look at akismet or typepad antispam

Making your own captcha script could also be fun. With php gd library it is not too hard to accomplish. Ofcourse, there is no point in reinventing the wheel and using scripts like recaptcha is much safer, but like I said - it could be fun.
