Padi C Card Pic Joke

[scubakiddo]

Hello,


I was wondering if there was a way to look up someones C Card picture online through padi. I am pulling this joke on my friend (who hates her c card picture) and I was trying to find a database or something I could look her up on so I can print out her pic and totally embarass her on her birthday.

I know the instructors process the pictures online ...... any help would be GREATKLY appreciated!!!! Thanks

I know you can print out a temp card but, I don't know about the picture.


And Welcome to Scubaboard.

Im trying to do this without her knowing...so i can embarass her. I know the instructors process the pic online, but i would think there would be a site i could get on and look up c cards or pictures of people.......

The problem with having this type of information online is that it would be easy to change the photo and use that person's name as yours, not to mention the privacy issue. If you are really wanting to do this, talk to her instructor.

Get a high school kid, or better yet an elementary school kid to hack into PADI's computer for you.

Well thanks for the help everyone. I just didn't know if there was such a thing or not. I don't know who her instructor was, she got certified on vacation in FL but we live in PA. I have seen it and thats what she calls her "passport photo" becuase her face is all distorted and blocked up...im actually suprised padi acepted the pic.

You cannot get this information from the PADI system, something about privacy

actually, PADI's website is SOOOOO SLLLLOOOOOOWWWWW, that a school kid, used to "high speed internet" would get tired of waiting on their site to repsond to any download, get bored, and quit before he ever finished 'hacking' into the PADI site...

Hate to say it, guys, but there is a way from the public side of PADI's site.

If you go to the replace c-card online part of PADI's site, and complete the necessary fields (i.e. full name on card and birthdate), it'll ask you for an address (put yours or hers in -- doesn't matter unless you're actually wanting to order a new card) to send the card to, provide you with a list of certification levels to "replace" the card for and also show you the current photo on-file with PADI (in case you don't want to upload a new one). You could right-click this and save it for your nefarious purposes.

All this before asking for payment...
