The computer ate our pictures (that's my story and I'm sticking to it)

[NH-R-T-Cha]

Earlier today I posted this on the Universal board.
Because we spent 2 full days at Sea World I'm posting it again here with a few changes.
--------------------------
I come to the Boards today, head bowed in shame (my technological dunce-cap fell off while I was bent over so I now hold it in my trembling hands). Even if there was an appropriate one, I'm too depressed to add a stickie here.
Long story, short - I erased the card on my digital camera while attempting to transfer the trip pictures to the computer. Severals pros have tried to retrieve them but the card had become 'un-formatted' so they're gone for good.
Now that I've stopped beating myself up - well not exactly but at least I've put the whip down for the moment - I'm here to ask for your help.
Is there somewhere that I can purchase photos of the shows, shots of the various signs and spots of interest in Sea World? We went to Believe, Blue Horizons, Clyde and Seymore and the Animal Stars one. DD got to 'meet' the dog from MIB. She touched the manta rays, posed with the horses, got a high-five from the pirate in Clyde and Seymore and we loved the mime there. (Luckily I bought a few postcards so we have the entrance lighthouse, penguins and the dolphin nursery).
I've tried a few searches for photos myself but have come up empty-handed. I'd like to get the regular 4x 6 ones to go into an album.
I'd appreciate any suggestions at all.

I humbly bow down to your expertise and thank you.

Have you checked the picture thread? You may be able to ask the posters there if they're willing to share their pictures with you if you find one you like.

I could probably come up with several pictures for you if you want. Please PM me if you are interested. I know we should have most of what you are looking for but it may take a bit to find the correct disc.

Dear Eraser Head:

You now have what Every One here is always looking for: A Perfect Excuse for another Trip to Orlando.

Or just say the mime made you do it!

"Boss you don't understand, I need another two weeks off. I HAVE to go back and reshoot my pictures."

PS the dog from MIB is not at Sea World. And manta rays are 20 feet across, those are little ? rays you get to pet. But you'll figure that out on your Return Photo Trip. :

On this board there is a Seaworld picture thread with lots of good pictures, especially of the shows. Maybe you can use those.

You're NOT funny!

Well, OK, maybe you have a mildly sadistic sense of humor ...

Actually your post made my day. First time ever I've been called Eraser Head! But it seems to be true - I even forgot which park is home to that ugly dog!

I've sent a pm to the other, very kind and helpful posters who took my plight to heart.

As for you ... Have a Nice Day! (Isn't that a Bon Jovi song?)

"mildly sadistic sense of humor"? Only MILD?

Actually I was going to be nice and say PM me. I don't have a photobucket space and haven't figured how to post pictures here, BUT I do know how to take pics and email jpgs. I was at SW for two days last week and spent a lot of time playing with my new digital camera (non SLR, gosh how I hate looking at a screen instead of thru the viewfinder) and IMHO I have some very nice pics. Some of the 230 are actually in focus! I have almost all the pics you are looking for, and and all, except the little dog, as Pets Ahoy was closed. I have some nice shots of the Clydesdale team, but you'll have to Photoshop in DD to get her back in the picture. OTOH, I hear your hobby is so perhaps better skip the Photoshop idea.

High resolution, 2MB each, but I can email them to you one at at time or however many your mailbox can handle.
