Deleted pix

I stripped down my ZB and took lots of pix on the way.I saved these onto my desktop and accidently overwrote them with another bunch of pix.Is there anyway of retrieving them?

I assume you took these pictures with a digital camera. One thing you've got to be real careful with when you upload the pictures from the camera is file names for the pictures. Some digital cameras start numbering the pictures from 0001 each time you clear the pictures out of the camera memory chip. If you're not careful, you'll replace all the pictures in your directory with pictures with identical numbers. Now you're screwed. To avoid this mess, you've got to create a new folder for each batch of pictures or rename every picture as you upload it.
It's best to have a camera with continuously incrementing numbers (Kodak, for example)that don't revert to 001 each time the pictures are cleared out of the camera. Sounds like this is what happened to you. I found this out the hard way and took the camera right back to the store.
