Description:	We need users to type in the letters that are in various pictures, the pictures are a simple format like attached. We wish to process approximately 5,000 images. The successful bidder will be selected Monday evening (GMT-5) and will be expected to have at least 1000 images done by Wed morning. After 1000 we will check the work and verify it's being done accurately then have you proceed with the next 9000 images. NOTE: This work will be web based, you will see an image and a textbox to enter the image, and a dropbox to say definitely correct, unreadable, or hard to read. NOTE: We may want more images later, please include in bid if you'd be available for more work the following week. This will NOT be ongoing, just until we have a large test dataset. Additional information submitted: 02/16/2007 at 19:16 EST: Sorry for the confusion. Bid for 5,000 images done with two deadlines: 1000 images completed by Wed early morning (GMT-5) with an additional 4000 (not 9000) due the following Wed. There is a possibility for another 5000 the following week, please just say if available for those or not. Please bid for the first 5000 images, not the first 1000, as one fee. We estimate this as 30 hours of typing time based on approximately one image done every 20 seconds (we've seen people do it in 10-15 consistently without the dropbox, however the dropbox will have a default value of "definitely correct" and only need to be changed for images that are unreadable - So we feel 20 seconds is sufficient time. The site will be very fast (assuming your connection is fast) and hosted at a data center in the US. The site will support one user at a time, not multiple users, but will be available 24 hours a day, 7 days/week. Additional files submitted: Example1.bmp Example2.bmp Example3.bmp Example4.bmp
