You can easily create a Google form this is visible to everyone in the group. But to make it more secure and to prevent the spambots from automatically filling the data into the form, You may want's to password protect your forms. I am going to show you how to add a picture password to your google form.
Google Forms have this little problem. The forms are either public (anyone can fill your form) or, if you are on Google App, You can create forms that are visible to everyone in your organization.This is however not possible to restrict access to forms to specific people.
Next shortcoming is that Google Forms don't allow passwords or CAPTCHAs to prevent spam bots from filling your forms with random data.The Google itself maintains the reCAPTCHA project, But it is not known if integration with the Google Forms is in the works. There is a workaround, though.
Google Forms with Picture Passwords.
Google Forms don't support CAPTCHA but they do offer an option to attach more images with questions. These can be used as image passwords.
The idea is simple.
We add a multiple-choice question where the user is asked to pick an image from a selection of multiple pictures. If they select the correct image, the main form is displayed else an error message is shown.
