I am looking specifically for how to delete photos taken with the built in iSight camera in my iMac with Mac OS X (10.5.4).

When I go to System Preferences>Accounts and choose my account, which is the main account that has read/write privileges, I click on the picture and go to "Edit Picture". There is an option to "take a video snapshot". There is also a drop down menu titled "Recent Pictures". There are pictures I want do delete listed under this menu "Recent Pictures" that were previously taken with the "take a video snapshot" feature in the same window. How do I delete these previously taken account photos?

Please keep in mind I do not want to change the picture, I want to DELETE the recent snapshot pictures so they do not exist any longer. I've searched high and low for this answer through the help menu and the internet, and have not found it.

If someone could find out where these pictures are kept, even that would be something. I have looked under the HD>Users>myusername>pictures, and none of those subfolders has them. I've also looked under HD>Users>myusername> movies, public, documents, and public, and they aren't in any of those folders either. Please advise.
