No.. there is the --help where you see all parameters and what they do,
setting up the check_commands you need is your work.

Yes and No!
Yes: You have to specify all your commands in the checkcommands.cfg and
use that commands in ther services.cfg
No: You don't have to specify a check for every website, just build one
check_mySite command that accepts a argument (or more than one)
Example:
define command{
command_name check_mySite
commandline check_http -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ $ARG3$
}
call it (for your example) in the services:
check_command check_mySite!5!10!pictures.mcaschool.net
you can reuse that check command for every site, but have to make a
different service entry for each host though.
