I was visiting a friend of mind that I haven't seen for almost 40 yrs, I took a picture of her with My Camera Phone. I am having a problem trying to send it in a email to my friend in California. Can you tell me step by step how to do it, I know everyone has a Camera Phone. You take the picture store it only press send and then what? Do I half to have an email setup in my cell phone? I could download a lot of pictures from my phone and post it on Mylot, but I don't know how. My Newphew tried to email a picture to my email address but it would take?

It depends on the services you have on your phone. If you have internet access for your phone, then you can pretty much email a picture from your phone.
You have to enter the email address instead of a phone number when you send the pic. Play around with the menu options of your phone, it shouldn't be that hard to figure out. However, if you don't have like a media works package for your phone then you can not use the email function.
Have fun..and hope that helps.

Sure they do!
I seldom use my camera to take pictures but occasionally, it does come in handy.
And check your manual, honey. 
Chances are there is a usb cable where you can first transfer the picture cost-free from phone to computer, then email it to your friend as an attachment.

You don't need to print right? Just email? Then it has nothing to do with printers.
And nope, you shouldn't need to buy anything. The cable should come free (usually) when you bought your phone. Check your phone manual under data transfer. Check the box your phone came in... see if there is any cable you have yet to use - hopefully you can find one that connects to your computer via the USB port on one end and connected to your phone's port on the other.

Or You can Use Irda or Bluetooth conectivity to transfer a picture to a PC or Notebook ... if PC or Notebook is capable to have that type of connection..
Otherwise You can use USB cable for transfering a pictures...

To me the easiest way to to connect the phone to your computer and download the picture and then email. You have to have a special connector that fits your phone and then plugs into the USB connector. My wife can email directly from her phone. But I do not have internet connection on mine so I can not help you if that is what you are trying to do.
