eh?!

What did I say to cause such offence? Seriously, I'd appreciate an answer to
that, I though my response might be of SOME use to you!

I thought my answer was perfectly sensible. IMO, that would be the easiest,
quickest and cheapest way to get a picture from the phone to the computer...

If you don't have bluetooth on the computer, transferring it by the phones
MEMORY (not SIM) card is probably the next easiest.
You can send an MMS message to an email address, so that'd work too, but
will obviously cost something(and the picture may be too big for an MMS)
If you don't want general advise, but are after a step-by-step set of
instructions then you should ask. I don't have a Nokia6500 or any manuals
for that phone, so I can't really help further.
