How to delete photos from iPod touch

I know this sounds stupid, but how can I delete individual photos from my Touch? I synced several thousand photos to my Touch, and now I would like to remove some. I just can't figure out a way to do it. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?

iMac 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo; 16gb iPod touch 2nd gen, Mac OS X (10.6.1), Mac User since 1984

Open Photos.
Click the photo.
Click the trash can in the lower-right corner.

Delete them from the folder on your computer that you sync with your ipod touch and then sync.

Delete the images you want to delete on the folder you used to sync. Then sync your iPod and the pictures you deleted would be deleted on your iPod touch.
The delete button only appears to photo you got off the net , Bluetooth photo transfer and screenshot. Any photo you sync using iTunes will not have the delete button. Hope this week

Andy, thank you very much this finally makes it clear. I can't believe you can't just click on a photo to delete it.
