So I'm planning to convert this blog to Wordpress. It's installed on my ISP's server, and the test blog is up and running. However, the Wordpress import function doesn't work on Blogger FTP blogs, only on Blogspot.com blogs. The only advice I can find online is to first convert this blog to a Blogger-hosted blog on Blogspot.com, then to import it into Wordpress.

My thought is, if I do this, I lose the current URL and it will be very difficult to point people to the new blog. Anyone have suggestions on how I can import to Wordpress with minimal disruption?

I'm only intermittently receiving Blogger e-mail notifications of new comments here, so if you comment on an old post, I may not see it for a while. Just changed over to my gmail account to see if that might help -- I see others in the help forums with the same problem, but no real answers. (Anyone?)

So I've blithely been going about admiring my own blog in Firefox... then someone just asked me why the left margin is so darn wide. What? Wow, is that bad in IE. I think this must have happened when I switched to the new Blogger -- anyone want to take a stab at helping me fix my template?
