All of these are great Jeff, but my favorites are the two blue guys sitting next to each other and the second to last image where the lady is looking to the viewer's left. Really fun stuff.

If you love sports, or you are interested in taking up sports, but find that after a sporting session you ache too much, you have pain and soreness in your joints and your posture is affected, then you need to read this article. Here, we explain the root cause of many such aches and pains, and the solution to the problem. Of course, following any intensive training, you will ache afterwards, this is because your muscles are recovering and subsequently strengthening. However, not all pain is due to the improvement of stamina and strength in muscles, some of the pain is due to poor posture - particularly the pain felt by those of you who practice sports regularly. You may question this assertion, believing that you have a good posture, however, if you wear shoes, and we are willing to bet that you do, your posture will be as nature intended it to be. This is where the innovative footwear of Vibram FiveFingers helps.five finger vibram reflect a revolutionary approach to footwear, and at first glance, these shoes look extremely bizarre. They can only be described as gloved shoes, in that there is a space for each individual toe, and at first, they look very odd, but when you stop to consider the design, you actually realise that they look like feet, and for that reason are probably much better adapted to the needs of feet. Eventually, you will come to realise that shoemakers should always have constructed their shoes thus; as an analogy, consider mittens as oppose to gloves, which design allows the hands to function more naturally? Moreover, five fingers kso have not designed their FiveFingers range whimsically; they are not a marketing gimmick whose aim is to increase sales via novelty merchandise. Vibram FiveFingers are the result of many years of investigation, experimentation, and innovation. Scientific findings underpin the designs, and they are recommended by many chiropodists (podiatrists for those of you from the US, New Zealand, and Australia) throughout the world, particularly when used in sport. There is very little padding on the shoes, as Vibram have designed them in a way that reflects the natural properties of feet; this means that there is very little interference from the shoes, which effectively mimic barefoot movement. By keeping the vibram 5 fingers as minimal as possible, a much more natural gait is achieved, and this means that less pressure is placed upon the body in places where pressure is not naturally felt. Less stress is created within joints, and the arch of the foot, as well as the spinal column and neck. The philosophy behind the Vibram FiveFingers range is that the human body is the result of millions of years of evolution, and as such is designed to perform to an optimum standard, by interfering with this natural balance, by wearing shoes that do not suit the natural contours of the foot for instance, we are creating unnecessary problems. five fingers by vibram affords the protection needed for feet in the modern world (social convention dictates that we do not go barefoot, and as such, our feet do not develop the natural thick leather-like cushion that they would naturally) while maintaining as much integrity as is scientifically possible.
