You're welcome. Sorry I wasn't a bigger help.

The first one Im sure was labelled as a Pool Frog rana lessonae but I wasnt that happy with the pics I saw. Also the name Nightstalker rings a bell for at least on of them I think?
I just looked at a bunch of pictures of Rana lessonae and I am not convinced this is your frog. Your frog has a texture on its dorsum that I did not see in the pictures of Rana lessonae that I saw.
Also, I have never heard the term nightstalker, at least not when it comes to frogs.

I would have to agree with Kurt. The first could be a Ranid, the second vaguely reminds me of some sort of Gastrotheca, the third a Mantella, the fourth could be Phrynohyas (or whatever that is now), and the fifth could be a Litoria or a Gastrotheca or a Hyla. Without location its hard to distinguish tree frogs.
Well, here are a bunch of pics to scan through, maybe we can find a match. http://calphotos.berkeley.edu/fauna/sci-Amphibian.html
I have a frog kind of like the first picture. she came from the creek behind my apartment building in pennsylvania as a pollywog(she had front apendeges) she only makes noise when startled, and likes to be handled. she likes to go for a swim too, and eats 2-3 large gut loaded crickets two or three times a week.
I would say that it is most likely a Lithobates clamitans melanota* or green frog. The males get bright yellow throats.
* formerly Rana clamitans melanota
