Try another browser. Some of that mess is browser dependent. I get it on Chrome but not of Edge
Maybe you need to look more carefully at the photos, including the ones they add as you're marking them? I get it occasionally on Chrome incognito windows, but always get through it in one try.
I have even had someone else look at the photos and I get the same over and over and over. It's more likely a settings issue. What are the settings you have on your computer for cookies? Ads? Cache?
Go into your browser settings and clear the cache and cookies. It fixed it for me.
I agree I HATE this
10 minutes every time I try to sign in
I clicked the fire hydrants, the stairs the bikes the street lights
Even had my son try
Its messed up
Apparently, you are a robot!
Seriously, those are frustrating. Not sure why some people get them more than others. It's been years since I saw one on Etsy.
@GardenLeafDesignArts It might be your settings, third party. Did you try the reload/refresh arrow up top on your computer?
Yes I have.
I have also restarted my computer.
The first time this happened to me, Etsy told me that it was because I didn't have cookies enabled.
After we fixed that, they eventually went away but then came back for a week or so and then went away again.
Sometimes I think it's punishment for something you say in the forum....LOL
I think if you turn on 2 factor authentication you might avoid the captcha.
