I couldn't really answer the theme question, since I basically started blogging with the Blogathon. :)<br /><br />http://www.brianpmann.com/switching-from-blogger-to-a-standalone-wordpress-blog/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10816910692841009412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1473387128642021993.post-27498090192961512362012-05-24T13:40:01.106-05:002012-05-24T13:40:01.106-05:00Jennifer - I've read a number of your articles...Jennifer - I've read a number of your articles - love what you do. I thought I'd chime in here on the wordpress side. I've gone through a number of wordpress installations in the past and by and large I am a big fan of it. The themes are flexible and the plugins/extensions virtually endless. The one caution comes from migrating your existing content - but in the end I think you'd be very happy with WordPress as a platform. Feel free ton contact me (jake at sonicdad dot com) I'd be happy to talk more about my WP escapades :)<br /><br />Hats off to your blog - keep the content coming!SonicDad.comhttp://www.sonicdad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1473387128642021993.post-72465717118357763022012-05-23T12:08:44.132-05:002012-05-23T12:08:44.132-05:00Jennifer, I chose Blogger for the same reasons you...Jennifer, I chose Blogger for the same reasons you did, and so far I've been happy. I felt I didn't need the bells and whistles of Wordpress. I don't want to spend that much time on what you call tech stuff. That being said, I do think a custom design is very important, and regarding yours, I wish there were boys in your banner, since that's your topic. If you don't want to feature yours (which I understand), you could go with a cartoony version, or a drawing, or a stock photo.<br />Last but not least, I must say hats off to keeping a blog going while single-moming four boys!Annette Gendlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03006606888883773812noreply@blogger.com
