There is a lot of different variations to the scales...the main idea of Spanish music (flamenco) is to create colorful phrases...many semi-tones exist inside the chord voicings themselves.

The scale you posted sounds quite nice over an F minor chord, very exoctic sounding...but it's not the same tonal center as the one I posted...the 8 tone spanish scale that I posted was meant to be played over a chord progrerssion that revolved around G7 & Ab7, essentially the 5 & b6 chord of C minor...in that respect the 8 tone spanish scale is nothing more then combining natural and harmonic minor together.
