Looks like a cross spider to me, too. I used to collect these as a child, I'd try to find them in different colors, keep them in jars for a few days and then release them. I've seen orange, yellow, grey, brown, beige... they're beautiful spiders and I do have a soft spot for them. I had one in my bedroom for months, it had made a large web in front of the open window and caught every insect that flew in :) Was kind of sad when she just left one day :(
