Where are my pictures?

Okay so I take these pictures for a class project on Friday and drop them off at CVS on Sunday for 1 hour developing. I pick them up in the evening. Well I just opened them and pictures 1 through 8 aren't anywhere to be found! Not on the disk, on the index print, or as actual pictures themselves.

Is it possible that my first 8 pictures somehow were defective and they just left them out? Or did they screw up and REALLY mess me up? I need to know what the most likely reason is before I go ballistic on someone.

Places like CVS Photo and other drug stores usually develop pics via a computer. If it determines the picture to be unreadable, it won't even print it. If you have the negatives, you could try bringing them to a photo store or something...

I've had this happen with the photo counter at Walgreens.

They're being held for ransom at the Walgreen's on South Bend Road.

If you want them back and unharmed.... you'll pay up buddy!!

On your index print, are there just black squares for 1 through 8, or no pictures at all?

Also, have you looked at your negatives? Are there any images for pictures 1 through 8? It's certainly possible that one of your negative strips got lost somewhere although it seems odd that 8 pictures would be missing since my negatives are usually cut into lengths of 4 pics. I guess they could have lost 2 of them, but I'm pretty sure that the index print (and other prints) get made prior to the negatives being cut into sections.

Again, describe what your index print looks like.
