thats how the web kinda looked the spider was sitting in the center with its leg together so it looke like it only had 4 legs or it was in a perfect x, then verticalay above and below in perfect straight lines it had a zig zag patern perfect along with its body, surrounded by the web, i have no idea but its a cool spider!

MacCleod,

Very cool page!

I had been wondering what the green lynx species was. I found one on my porch a while back! We have tons of orbweavers here in North Carolina as well! Thanks for posting the link!
