Along came a spider

If you go down a little smaller to micro organisms, you can find truly nightmarish creatures,

(sorry, struggling to post pictures).

You can literally copy and paste an image. Not a URL - an actual image.

1. Right click on any online image (that's isn't some weird SVG or something).
2. Select "copy image".
3. Place cursor in SciFo editing window.
4. Ctrl-V.

That's what I did with the flying murder-spider, above, right from a Google Images thumbnail.

This quote is going to be famous one day...people on internet forums in the future, will be quoting you...in ''quotes to remember.''

I shared it to our quotes to remember thread... and I'm still laighing my arse off! LMFAO

As for that huntsman, I don’t have a glass large enough, nor a piece of paper strong enough to slide under it even if I did.

LMFAO
joking - I actually like spiders being around.

those look like the cute, tinier roaches they have in South Miami.... of course, in Miami, the roaches are bigger, armed and wear gang colours, so they're recognizable from a distance of at least half a mile. and they have an air force, cause the f*ckers FLY!

Have you noticed, from the back it looks like a person with a funny hat and a large cape.

There was a movie of such a creature: Mimic.

I had never heard of it, so I looked it up... how was the movie?

Not too bad. Kinda interesting in concept of insect mimicry in a world occupied by humans.

and another clip

A novel twist, in this species there is only one fertile male (king) instead of one fertile female (queen)..........

The Titan Beetle flies.
My God does it fly!

No, that is not the tiniest person in the world holding it!

(Thanks for details on posting pics... thought there was something more complicated involved, as wasn’t sure allowed to just past links direct to pictures)

Edit: Gah!
Images still come up as just the link!
Sorry.

Same here Baldeee. I posted some pictures of a large shoe, but it still only shows as link.

Make sure you do not highlight the picture. Just place cursor over picture and right click. It will tell you if the "image" can be copied. Select copy and paste. You can verify the copy in "preview" of your post.

Place cursor on pic and right click. Look for "copy image".

 

[TheFrogger]

...but I'm using a smartphone so I cannot, "right-click."

Ditto.

 

[Write4U]

OK. I'll provide the pics....hehe

If you have a stylus (mine is a pen with a rubber tip on top) you hold the stylus with a firm pressure on the picture and a menu comes up with one option being COPY and another one being DOWNLOAD

Has anyone else noticed how Spiders must lift their front-legs to bite? \/ *shudders*

I've never bothered to pick the shoe off of them and put out the fire to find out...

ain't that the truth...
it's weird though. Your pics are frightening and mesmerising at the same time.
the top right picture looks like a bug-eyed vampire worm that has brain damage though... LOL
