I really need to know what weed killer to use without killing everything else.
Also, anyone have any links to websites that have pictures of lawn weeds (I
emphasize the word pictures as most of them just use the latin names).

thanks

That looks like Dallisgrass to me. You can put some Bayer Advanced™
All-In-One Weed Killer for Lawns on it.

I haven't had much luck with this product though. I usually dig a
clump of dallis grass up when it appears in my lawn.

I think this is a cool site for identifying weeds. I don't know how
comprehensive it is though.
