Depending upon how images were included in the blogger version, you could run into some extra work. When I did this I couldn't find an easy means to grab all of the images hosted at blogger and import them, linked properly, to the new site.

I think the images are sorted out. I'm freaked out by the drastic redesign that doesn't match the old site and the reimporting of my blog roll... which seems to have to be done manually.

i went from wordpress to blogger and back, its more work but wordpress seems to have far more options. The one thing im running into though is that if your server isnt configured perfectly u end up having to do a lot of the plugin installs manually which blows

my service provider, media temple supports "one click installation" so I think I might be ok in that department.
anyone have any suggestions on good plugins? or other tips?
thanks

dude good my personal ones on mt. its soooo hassle free compared to our work blog. The stats plugins good, the wp to twitter, and wp to facebook are great as well. Bookmarking is good for people to socially network with your clever posts. Also there is a good form plugin for people to email you as well.
