Pretty simple really, I just cut the small end, (camera end) off an unused digicam usb cord.
Peel back all the shield wires, and foil wrap, and separate the red and black wires,( +5v and ground). I used 5v LED's, so I didn't need a resistor, but if you use 3.3v LED's you need about an 85 ohm resistor in series, (solder it to the long leg of the LED), then solder the +5v to the long leg, or the resistor, if used, and the ground wire to the short leg.

here is a pic as I was testing it \/ \/ \/ \/ Have fun!!!
