Hiya.. :o)

Kinda weird Request...but =)

I have tried to make a spider for a friend of mine...but..
Uhm...well...I can't seem to remember what a spider's 'face'
look like..
It's sopposed to be a close-up of a spider..and not just a dot
in a string..if u know what I mean ;o)

Would be great if anyone could send some spiders, different types
is of course welcome =)

Thanx in advance :o)

This is the one and only spider I've done so far. :)
So I hope it's what you're looking for.

Ooooohhh nasty looking fiend! It may have got you had it not been so dizzy walking

Amusingly enough, here is the original post of the spider I did:

----------------------------------------------------------------
Subject:      SPIDER
From:         edi...@cc.curtin.edu.au (Shanaka Dias)
Date:         1997/10/09
Message-ID:   <61g4ir$kje$2...@alpha10.curtin.edu.au>
Newsgroups:   alt.ascii-art 

<Sigh> A few nights ago I was returning home from a short drive.
As I went to open the car door, I just happened to notice
a spider (about the size of my hand!) on the drivers

<note: It was the size of my outstretched hand, not
something wimpy like the size of my fist!>

side window. ummm on the INSIDE of the window about 25 cm's away
from my head and roughly eye level. This was mildly surprising
to say the least!

I recognized it as a Huntsman, but that was about as much as
I knew. So I veeeeeeery gently opened the door and let it out.

It turns out that Huntsman aren't lethal, but have a nasty bite and
apparently like to jump. I'm glad I didn't know this at the time ;)

That was my inspiration for tonights picture

           ____                      ,
          /---.'.__             ____//
               '--.\           /.---'
          _______  \\         //
        /.------.\  \|      .'/  ______
       //  ___  \ \ ||/|\  //  _/_----.\__
      |/  /.-.\  \ \:|< >|// _/.'..\   '--'
         //   \'. | \'.|.'/ /_/ /  \\
        //     \ \_\/" ' ~\-'.-'    \\
       //       '-._| :H: |'-.__     \\
      //           (/'==='\)'-._\     ||
      ||                        \\    \|
      ||                         \\    '
snd   |/                          \\
                                   ||
                                   ||
                                   \\
                                    '

And I think it had only three legs on one side,
if anyone noticed. If anyone wants to add a fourth
leg, feel free too. But I think the left set of
legs will need to be re-arranged.
