So... to start out with I know I am retarded for doing this in the first place, I had enabled FileVault (thats not the retarded part), and I had kept trying to turn it off but it would tell me I needed 4500 GB of free space to do this, so obviously that was not going to happen. So when I downloaded Disk Inventory X, and it showed me that I had 60 GB of space on a "sparse image" I was thinking why do I have that, so I sent it to the trash (theres the retarded part), so it went to the trash, thing was... it was still there, so I sent it again, now I got 2 sparse images in the trash both 60GB, I try emptying the trash but that doesnt work, so I change my settings for my user to normal instead of admin, and I login under the other admin, but I can't get to anything on my old user. I really don't care if everything is lost on my "unable to login" user, except I have about 9000 pictures on my iPhoto.

Is there anyway to get back on the account, or get into it from my other admin? I know I am retarded, but if there is anything that would be great. Is there anything I can do because I have 15GB of free space left and I know that it didn't delete those sparse images?
 
K nevermind I fixed it through fishing through other forums.

I guess I just needed to enable a root user, then login under the root user and find the hidden trash folder under my old username and move the file back. It was pretty simple.
