Shouldnt be too difficult, I hate the things too! You should have seen me being a big girl whilst I was taking them. I had to get practically inside the bush to take one picture, but once I get close i couldn't find where the spider was (I was using 100mm macro + tubes so could only see very small area), I peered over the top of my camera to see the absolutely massive spider running towards my face!!! I screamed like a little girl.

Its shaping up very nice but on my pathetic 1mb connection (soon to be replaced with 16mb thankfully!) the images are taking quite some time to load

Takes a while on my 12meg connection as well - more likely to be the hosting slowing things down?

Ah right, that'll be it then. I thought it odd it was taking so long when the images aren't that big!

5mb here taking upto 4 seconds per image and they are 300k.

Server bandwidth that.

haha, did you run around the garden waving your arms about and shouting "ITS ON ME ITS ON ME"

I would have done the same

I can pickup most spiders, but its when you don't know where they are that freaks me out. I remember a while ago laying in bed looking up and seeing a huge spider abseiling down onto my face on a web, I have never got out of bed so fast.

Nah I want for the ultra sonic scream approach, followed by jumping around.

I can imagine that, I wish I could have seen it! I actually just laughed quite loud to an empty house!

Your site is looking really good, and enhanced by some amazing photos. You should be proud!

Agreed, there are some excellent photos on the site, i particularly like the Torbay set. Also i noticed some of your photos are in two different sections, was this intentional? (Animal/macro)

Cheers! It was intentional, haven't decided whether i'll keep it that way or not though...
