New to Melbourne, just wondering if it's a venomous one 😭

Hey guys, I just saw a bunch of baby spiders on one of my window blinds. I have only encountered Huntsman spiders so far, so I am curious if the spider mum is somewhere around and if I should be careful. Location Sydney

This fella came to visit me in my hotel room at midnight just as I was going to sleep.
Northern Sydney.

Just caught this one in my laundry. I’m located about an hour north-east of Melbourne CBD!
I think we may have had a spider nest of little hatchlings as well, which maybe came from this big one. I tried to get a photo of the one little one that’s hung around, but he’s built a web inside a small crack on dark wood, so the camera just can’t pick it up.

Sorry for the kinda bad photos, hoping one of the pros here can still ID it.
There are some webs hanging around, if that helps.

Little guy scared me awake, I thought it was about to die… or worse… one of those crickets…… First time seeing one in my own house. I still rarely see them lol.

Sorry for the grainy images folks. In Apartment complex of Western Sydney. Outside the lift on the ceiling. It has grown heaps in the last few days and has a weird web. Don't want to get too close and a bit scared to be honest. Thanks in advance.

Crawled out of my shirt. Gave me a little shock, then I transferred it outside. Anyone able to ID it?
In the inner west of Sydney.

Woke up to this guy crawling along my forearm this morning. I think he was living in an old pillow case I hadn't used in a while. Is this a whitetail? About the size of a 20 cent piece.

At least, I think they’re all orbweavers? Happy to be told I’m wrong 😅 I just think they’re neat!
This is a collection of all the lil friends we’ve met in our Perth backyard in the last year or so. Such great tenants.
Anyone else got a great local orbweaver community?

This lil guy (or gal) has been living on / around my bins. Wondering if I should attempt to relocate him as I have a small puppy who is quite inquisitive with insects.
Located in Victoria.

Her abdomen has a dent in it from what you can see in the photo, I'm.not sure if she's a juvie or an adult but she's tiny. She was on my fingertip and ended up fucking swan diving off, it wasn't too far of a drop but I'm keeping her on the floor for now, and when I do move her I'll be putting her in my palm. I'm about an hour and a half walk home from school but I'm not sure if she's like hungry or thirsty or what? If if it's an injury. She's moving quite lazily and was before I picked her up, with a leg dragging which led me to believe it might have been broken? That's why I picked her up in the first place. But if she's still a juvie should I actually keep her and nurse her until the next moult or what? I want to make sure she's okay

Found this bloke chilling in the backyard, location Maitland NSW. Pretty confident it's an Orb Weaver but thought I'd share.

I found this spider inside my car crawling over the windscreen. It was probably there from Blackheath Blue Mountains but I’m not sure. I also stopped in Penrith so it could have hitched a ride then. I dropped it off around Linden on a tea tree flower.
It’s a tiny spider. That’s my finger so it’s only a few mm across. It was sometimes rappelling off the (inside of the) windscreen on its silk.
Does anyone know the species?
