I Did It! (almost)
I'm pretty damned proud of myself, can I tell you?
I told y'all to change your links/bookmarks to tammisworld.com and I've been working very hard to get that set up.
It's coming along pretty well. I went with typepad and I'm really liking it so far. I know NOTHING about coding or design and this is set up for people just like me. PLUS, it'll give me more freedom with video and pictures and such. Yeah....I'm liking it a lot.
However, I've hit a bit of a bump in the road. It's the importing of my old posts to there. Now....it should be easy. I'm sure it is. I'm just not getting something.
Either that or I post way too much. (No comments from the peanut gallery!)
I've managed to import everything from the beginning to November 2005. Twice. But then it times out and stops.
Damn......so if anyone has any tips or suggestions, I sure would appreciate the help.
Other than that, it's coming along fine. Like I said, I've changed the layout a bit, and the coloring. I've just about got the banner ready for the upload - cause I love my banner and it wouldn't be "Home" without it.
I figure once I figure this "import" thing out oh and figure out how to sign in for my DNS (whatever the hell THAT is) I'm locked and loaded.
And like I said, pretty damned proud of myself.
But anyone have any suggestions on what I'm missing with that import part?

That may very well be your problem. Have you contacted support?
I'm so excited for you! :D

One thing you might look at are your rss feeds as they point back to your mu.nu site and not the new site.
stay warm...
