The CaptchaImage.aspx Code Behind

 
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Drawing;

namespace Captcha
{
    public partial class CaptchaImage : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            CaptchaClass C = new CaptchaClass();
            Bitmap bitmap = C.CreateImage();
        }
    }
}

The CaptchaClass.cs

 
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Web;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;
using System.Text;

namespace Captcha
{
    public class CaptchaClass
    {
        public Random rand = new Random();
        public Bitmap CreateImage()
        {
            string randomCode = GetRandomText();
            Bitmap bitmap = new Bitmap(200, 150, System.Drawing.Imaging.PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb);

            Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(bitmap);
            Pen pen = new Pen(Color.Gold);
            Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0, 0, 200, 150);

            SolidBrush b = new SolidBrush(Color.DarkKhaki);
            SolidBrush blue = new SolidBrush(Color.Gray);

            int counter = 0;
            g.DrawRectangle(pen, rect);
            g.FillRectangle(b, rect);

            for (int i = 0; i < randomCode.Length; i++)
            {
                g.DrawString(randomCode[i].ToString(), new Font("Verdana", 10 + rand.Next(14, 18)), blue, new PointF(10 + counter, 10));
                counter += 20;
            }
            DrawRandomLines(g);
            bitmap.Save(HttpContext.Current.Response.OutputStream, ImageFormat.Gif);

            g.Dispose();
            bitmap.Dispose();
            return bitmap;
        }
        public void DrawRandomLines(Graphics g)
        {
            SolidBrush greenLine = new SolidBrush(Color.Green);
            for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
            {
                g.DrawLines(new Pen(greenLine, 2), GetRandomPoints());
            }
        }
        public Point[] GetRandomPoints()
        {
            Point[] points = { new Point(rand.Next(10, 150), rand.Next(10, 150)), new Point(rand.Next(10, 100), rand.Next(10, 100)) };
            return points;
        }
        public string GetRandomText()
        {
            StringBuilder randomText = new StringBuilder();
            string alphabets = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890";
            
            Random r = new Random();
            for (int j = 0; j <= 5; j++)
            {
                randomText.Append(alphabets[r.Next(alphabets.Length)]);
            }
            HttpContext.Current.Session["Code"] = randomText.ToString();
            return HttpContext.Current.Session["Code"] as String;
        }

    }
}



The Captcha.aspx Page

 
<%@ Page Title="" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Site.Master" AutoEventWireup="true"
    CodeBehind="Captcha.aspx.cs" Inherits="Captcha.Captcha" %>

<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="HeadContent" runat="server">
</asp:Content>
<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" runat="server">

        onclick="Button1_Click" /><br />
    <asp:Image ID="Image1" runat="server" />
</asp:Content>

using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

namespace Captcha
{
    public partial class Captcha : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
        }
