There is a species on this site that resembles your specimen; see Misumenops celer at http://davesgarden.com/guides/bf/go/668/ . However, there are other species that have this general color pattern.

i figured this would be a hard one lol.
I don't think that's it...unless markings/colors can differ within species?
thanks!

Yes, there can be considerable within species variation; that's just one factor in making identifications from an image alone problematic.
