Default not able to access phone memory

ok, so... issue is, i go into applications and into "my files" but i can only explore the SD card files, before, i was able to go through the phone files as well, and now i cant. even when i connect to the computer and sync, it only lets me look around the SD card files....
the problem is i have "some pictures" on the phone that need to be removed but not deleted, how can i put them on the SD card or straight to the computer???

Use Astro File Manager, or better yet Root Explorer if you're rooted. My Files is extremely basic.

Downloaded astro. Found the files but feel stupid because it ended up being in dcim on the sd card. Thank you very much for your help.
There's just one more issue,i tried copying a file from the sd card into the font folder of the phone but it wouldn't let me.any idea why?

You need root access to do that, and Root Explorer, because RE uses Superuser and Astro does not.
