I moved the picture over for you Annette, so at least a different photo comes up as the thumbnail :) If you do want to delete that photo, I will try for you! As for the spider... something in the Tegenaria genus I would say! Probably what's called a giant house spider. http://bugguide.net/node/view/31444/bgpage You can check this page out to start, but the website itself is good for IDing North American arthropods!
It won't work I'm touching delete but when I go back to " my spottings" it still has the same picture and thank you so much for your help i really appreciate it!
Annette, you can edit your spotting by clicking "Edit this spotting" up there in the top right (above your username on this spotting). You can either delete the first picture (since we can't see the spider properly!) or you can change the order of the photos by dragging them where you want them to go :) Hope that helps, let us know if you still have problems!
Hello. The first image doesn't display properly. Maybe you can place another one in the first position? Thanks
