From reading the OP, I'm under the impression he doesn't have the geckos in hand to photograph, but has ordered them and would like pics and info about them.

If I'm correct, try looking for info about Hemidactylus tanganicus, as they have been called Diamond Geckos on numerous older wholesale lists. May not be the right ones, but it's worth a shot.
