Sexing vinegaroon - help?

[arizonablue]

Hoping for some assistance sexing this vinegaroon. It looks female to me, but I've gotten differing opinions. Thanks!

It looks female to me.

Here's a side-by-side comparison of male and female: http://www.bugnation.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=183&t=30104

That's the image I was using as a guide, but before I got some underside photos someone suggested it was male because it was slimmer with large pedipalps. This is my first vinegaroon so I figured I'd ask! Thank you!

Probably should move this to the "Other Arachnids" page, but, it looks female

That's a male. Female's underside looks different.

PS. One used in the reference in the link is a different species and apparently has different morphology than the US species.

Whoops. Sorry! Can I move it or does a mod need to do that? I checked the help section but didn't see anything about how to do that.

Augh, now I have no idea what it is again, haha. How can you tell? Is there an image guide you can point me to? Thanks!
