About Arachtober

This group is similar to a 365 group, the goal is to post spiders to Flickr daily during October. When you shot them is less important. But the spiders must be posted to Flickr during this October. Don't add photos you posted long ago to the group, they will be removed. This pool is just a place to gather those who are participating. The idea is to post new spiders to your photostream.

If you don't have enough spiders for every day you can still participate. Post what you have. You can either post them daily till you run out, spread them out every few days, or save them till Halloween week for Spider Blitz. Spiders are especially popular around then.

This group is mainly for photos of real spiders (and other arachnids), but when you are posting that many spiders sometimes a little fun has to sneak in. A few fake spiders or spider artwork is ok too.

Arachtober started in 2007 with jciv and zxgirl. During Halloween week, urtica and jaciii joined in. Check out the spiders from Arachtober 2007.

There are no requirements to comment or view other member's photos, but that is part of the fun.
