This impressive specimen was on my verandah one night attending to the flies which had gathered around a porchlight, and I took the opportunity to take a snap. I tried waiting for an opportunity to get the spider with a fly, but as soon as he/she got one, the spider would run off into a corner to eat it in peace.

Support. Very nice shot. -- Chris 73Talk 11:17, Mar 12, 2005 (UTC)
Support. That thing is creepy. How big is it, actually? Junes 11:35, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I didn't actually go up with a ruler to measure the spider, as I didn't fancy getting bitten, but it was at least 10cm from leg to leg --Fir0002 23:16, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Brrr... I support the unscaled version, though. Junes 09:11, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I was really hoping he wouldn't jump up at the annoying thing flashing at his/her face!!! --Fir0002 23:16, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Ugh... I hate spiders.... Opp...... Oppo......... fine, Support. (Can you please put some sort of copyright tag on the image?) -- BRIAN0918 16:09, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Support the unscaled version. -- BRIAN0918 06:43, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Support. (Besides the copyright tag, could I trouble you to upload it at Image:Huntsman spider.jpg or something similar? "Huntsmen spider" makes me twitch.) —Korath (Talk) 16:49, Mar 12, 2005 (UTC)
Ughh. Horrible. Support!--Deglr6328 18:08, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Oppose. While a fascinating and clear image, provides no idea of how big the thing is. Not that I want to know. :P →mathx314(talk)(email) 20:31, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I hope you like the scaled version, its probably not 100% accurate, but it is very close. Leaned to slightly underestimate the size of the spider, rather than over estimating. --Fir0002 23:16, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I support the scaled version, but not the unscaled. →mathx314(talk)(email) 22:27, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Support the version without the scale - the slant is great and the image is striking. The size of the spider belongs in the article, not necessarily the picture. --Spangineer∞ 21:23, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
