How to transfer pictures from phone to computer using a usb cord?

Without knowing what phone you have it's a bit hard. First does your phone have a memory card, if so see where the photo's are stored memory card or phone memory. If they are stored on on the phones memory see if you can move them to the memory card. Remove your memory card and put in computer and access like through my computer. (you may need an adapter) You may also be able to connect a usb cable directly to your phone and access them that way, but will need the phone software installed on your computer. http://www.techlore.com/article/11641/How-To-Transfer-Pictures-From-Your-Cell-Phone/

Just insert the cord connected to your phone through the computer, then an icon will pop that a device has been detected. It may need some installing first but some devices don't, the window of your phone will pop and then select the "Open/View Files(or something)" I am not really sure but yeah, sounds like that. And that's it, you'll see the picture, you can drag it or copy it.
