Speedo racer! I guess he didn't find a pair of shorts that would work for him. 
If I saw that guy at a race, I'd be cracking up on a major scale.
I gotta invest in a running Speedo see if it helps me set any new PRs. |

No you're not...everyone is a little lost on this at some point.
The URL is the image address. If you right click on a photo that is on the internet somewhere it should give you "properties." I'm not sure exactly how it works with a PC, but with a Mac I get a variety of choices, including image location. That's what you want. You'll end up with an address that looks something like http://www.sample.com/picture.jpg.
Does that make sense?
If you need a place to upload and store photos I know Photobucket.com is really popular. I personally use Smugmug.com, but that's a paid service (I was one of the early customers, so my subscription rates were "grandfathered." It's not all that cheap anymore). |

My friend has an picture-editor thingy and she edited this picture and gave it to me. 
I think she did it on photobucket? maybe? |

It's easy to do in Photoshop. You make a duplicate layer on top of the original color photo, convert the top layer to grayscale, then erase the area on the top layer to show what you want in color on the bottom layer--voila!

That form looks fine---for a 100m sprint! |

I can't say this is my goofiest look ever, but the puffed out cheeks as I sprint to the finish do make it a tad silly at least.
