I just heard back from my blog template designer about making all the changes necessary to update my template to the new Blogger settings (which then allows me to get HaloScan to handle my comments) and they said it would be $75 an hour for 2 hours work. Hmm. It didn't cost me that much to have the the whole thing made from scratch! So now I am thinking of moving to WordPress. I don't want to spend money on hosting my site, so WordPress is the obvious other choice, but as any of you know from migrating a blog, it is a big decision. So this is where I ask, what can you all tell me about WordPress? If you use it, do you like it? If you used to use it, why don't you any more? If you've thought about using it but changed your mind, why? Will I still be able to use my snazzy blog design on WordPress? Please help me out. I want to make my blog as accessible as possible while still still maintaining it's prettiness!

I have disabled anonymous comments for the time-being. I know a lot of you like to comment anonymously and just leave initials so I know who you are, and that is totally fine with me. The problem is, lately, I have gotten a couple completely anonymous comments, and one was incredibly sweet, while the other, NOT so much. On both accounts, I really wanted to know who the commentor was. So please take the ten seconds to set up a quick and dirty blogger account or sign in with a google account. I am working on a solution, but it is going to take a while because I will basically have to rebuild the entire site.

I know it's an inconvenience, and I really don't want to loose your comments, so please help me out here! :o)
