Doesn't look *much* like a spider...

Spider bodies have two parts, a large round abdomen and a smaller cephalothorax (head-breast) at the front. All the legs attach to the *front* part (as do the fangs etc).

Cute. When you make this little cake, Cory, please take the time to place some wonderful eyes on this yummy. A blind spider is too sad to contemplate, even when it's on my plate. Oh, I've eaten him...too late.

#9 Sabik, follow the link. There are others with tiny heads, and huge swollen abdomens.

#11 Jeff, there's one with about 20 eyes. Looks weird. :)

Dainel, do some spiders have that many eyes? I feel cheated with just two.

Jeff, spiders have eight eyes. Count for yourself.

#15 Avram, I think that should be spiders with eight eyes have eight eyes. There are many variations, from 0-8 including all the even numbers between. Many species do have eight.
