    Hacking searches / Permanent search links

    How about an "Insert Search Link" button in the message posting page? Kind of like the Youtube button. You would just type the search word/s, select it, and press the Insert Search Link button and it would create the necessary link around the search word/s.

    Perhaps it's a male A. diadematus? The abdomen color and shape do look like that of the species and (I think) you can see a little bit of the eyes too. :) Or it could be a very thin female. P.S. get used to "rude" replies :rolleyes: some people are meanie pants :rolleyes:
