ahwahneeliz, don't worry about being too verbose! I appreciate the info!!! Very detailed (and good) explanation.

Elza, very cool prop!

Man, I'm hoping that my spider victim/cocoon/spider area comes out 1/10th as good as what some of you have done.

thanks for all the help/suggestions! And keep them coming. I haven't had a chance to really work on this yet, so I can still change what I'm going to do at any time! LOL
