Hahahah. I seriously doubt you sexed a half inch sling if you can't even sex this one. With something that small, things may not even be developed enough to appear yet, and if they are, you'd need a microscope to see it... or super powered vision.

Unfortunately, this pic is much too blurry for me to say with any certainty what it is. I hope you kept it though!

I've found that if it's too wet, the spermathecae and/or uterus externus will stick to the exuvium and become almost invisible, especially with immature females/juvies/slings. If you gently and carefully lay a small piece of tissue paper in that area to wick away the water until it dries out a bit, you'll be able to see small details better.

For photos, try to get that area in focus as much as you can. Any point and shoot will have a macro function, usually with a flower symbol, that you should use. Generally camera phones suck for this sorta thing.

So if you still have it, try one or both of those things, and post better pics. Keep a (super powered?) eye of that pulchripes!
