I can post an "ok" picture later, but here's a brief desc. J/w if anyone can shed some light on what type of spider it may have been. It was relatively small, thing legs. Had a lime green "upper body" with fire truck red abdomen that also had white spots. The colors were very bright.

Nah, not nearly as exotic looking or large. Also, from what I could see there weren't any "hairs" that I noticed.

That is just a close up picture, green jumping spider is not large at all, it's just as big as your finger tip

This spider is found in Australia

Couldn't find an edit button for the 1st post. Here's a pic. Sorry for the quality, it was taken with a cell camera.

Crab spider (Family Thomisidae). I would guess from overall apearance it is a member of either the genus Misumena or Misumenops, the flower crab spiders.
