A friend from the UK recently visited and let me have his old Vodaphone LG smartphone.

It has a fairly large photo aperture feature at the front. I know bugger all about Smartphones and visited my local computer/telephone basement in BigC. I was told that it did indeed have a memory card (albeit tiny and oddly shaped at one corner/side).

I'd trawled the net to see how this thing works (I like to process my own images in Photoshop) and found that there should be a slot on the front of the hard drive (Acer Aspire), but they all look far too large to insert this tiny memory card into. Am I missing something? Should there not be some other little gizmo into which to insert the card and then an appropriate slot?

Am desperate to resume my photography, but this Smartphone is all I have for the time being, my Nikon having been stolen, along with everything else in my house, whilst I was in hospital. By a farang. (Just to forestall any 'Thai' thief comments).

Thankyou.:)

Assuming it's a micro or mini SD card (looks like a baby version of an SD card) you just need an adaptor. Visit Pantip / Fortune with your card and you should score :)

As Crossy mentioned, you can get a USB to any card (10 in 1, 8 in 1, etc) adapters for a few hundred baht. Here is an example:

Also, did the phone come with a USB cable as it may be recognized on your notebook as a flash drive when plugged in?

No, no USB cable, (no Notebook either, just bog standard desktop).

My net search simply threw up 'slide into appropriately sized slot on hard drive, but they're all far too large. It looks like the Micro SD.

I'll go back to the computer outlet (no Pantip here, but large IT outlets), and ask about this adapter.

Thanks both for your replies :)
