I feel like I’m straddling the divide between two websites.  I got sick of blogsome.com (because it’s kind-of limited) and wished I had not used "pookieart" as a name, so I got a domain (iluvart.net) and web space, which I am old-hat at, and set up the same blogging software there and spent two days fricking around w/ layout (html, css, and even PHP!), to get it JUST where I want it (so that it looks just like THIS blog).  (take a peek)

One of the things that pisses me off about blogsome.com is that there is no way to export posts.  So I can’t export all these posts (at pookieart.blogsome.com) and then import them into the new blog [or for backup purposes].  That means that the archives of the NEW site will have to point here, which is fine, if you think about it in terms of archives-by-month.  Want to see January?  Sure, I’ll just make the Januray link point to pookieart/blogsome and keep that as archives.  BUT, say, if someone clicks on the CATEGORY "moleskine".  Then what?  If they do that on the new site they will se NO POSTS older than the day I changed blogs.  This is crazy.  I’m really peeved. 

Yes, I posted on the blogsome forums for help and got a link to a post that says to use certain software to backup the posts, but the software has changed so much since the post about backing up was written that the instructions are useless and the software doesn’t even seem to work.

What I shoulda just done (and could still do, but then I’d basically be throwing away days and days of WORK!) would be to just cancel the web hosting for the new domain and POINT the new domain to pookieart/blogsome w/ domain masking.  Then, if you typed in iluvart.net, it’d take you to pookieart/blogsome but you’d only see "iluvart.net" in the browser.  I can still do that, but I hate to throw aways days of work and also blogsome IS LIMITED, which is one reason WHY I got a domain and hosting and i’m talking in circles and i want fritos and i want to go to bed!!!!!!!!!!   =:o>—<
