[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 538682"] Well I'm running Tiger so the hierarchy might not be the same at all. Anyway, I found a [I]User Picture[/I] folder and the path is this: [I]Macintosh HD[/I] -> [I]Library[/I] -> [I]User Pictures[/I] But I doubt the image you are looking for would be there for the simple fact that, this is a folder that is theoretically accessible to all users on your Mac. The image is supposed to be accessible only to your user account. Maybe you could use Spotlight to search for it: ask for finding all .jpgs, all .pngs lying around on your hard drive, it'll be tedious but that's the only thing I can think of. If you still can't find anything, add to your search criteria for invisible image files. Another thing you could do as well is launch iPhoto. It finds images I don't even know where they are stored! LOL But seriously, can't say I spent a huge amount of time wanting to know either. ;) [/QUOTE]
