Pics from iphone to cmp?

Ok- so heres the thing. Apple and iPhones r super confusing so idk if my way is gonna work. Whenever u plug in your iphone (this pops up on my ipod touch) a box pops up, not itunes, but a box and it shows ur device and says stuff u can do like open to view files or import files. Well, click import (or export idk which one) and click photos. And youll be able to import the photos that r on ur iPhone to ur laptop. This is not a fool-proof plan but it SHOULD work. Hope i helped. :)
