Uploading from Fujifilm Finepics camera

[Man in Black]

I have a Fujifilm FinePics A500 camera and wish to upload the pictures so that I can use them on ebay.
Please, could some kind person give me step-by-step instructions, in simple terms. I am using Windows XP

There are a number of ways to do this.
Firstly - do you have a USB lead supplied with your camera. It is probably grey. Secondly - do you have the Fuji FinePix Viewer icon on your desktop. Please advise me and i will proceed . . . .

Yes - I do have the USB lead, and have the FinePix viewer icon. I have loaded the camera software but am stuck.

Create a new folder on your desktop. Then, before switching on camera, connect USB lead to computer and camera. Then switch on camera. A window appear giving you the option to "Copy Pictures To A Folder On My Computer". Highlight it and then click ok. From there is a Wizard which will help you to complete the task. If you get stuck - please come back to me. Good luck

OK lets try this . . .
Create and name a new folder on your desktop. Then, before switching on camera, connect USB lead to computer and camera. Then switch on camera. Now - DOUBLE LEFT CLICK on the Fuji FinePixViewer icon on your desktop. This will open up a window and will show your Local Disc (C) - just below it you should see FinePix with a + sign on its left. Click on the + and now you should see +DCIM. Click on it. And then you will see 100FUJI. Click on 100 FUJI and your pictures should appear
