Apparently Blogger requires you to manually adjust your site feed settings when you switch to your own host. Because I didn't know anything about this, my site was trying to serve up the wrong feed.

The atom feed is now fixed. Apologies to anyone who has tried unsuccessfully to subscribe.

I'm going to blame Michael Douglas for this.

The Blogger photo upload tool is still available when you publish to your own web space, but it uploads to your web space, not to Blogger.

I'm perfectly comfortable uploading my own photos manually, but I want my profile picture on Blogger. I use two different pictures: one with a border that displays on my own pages and one without a border that displays on my profile and all comment pages.

In order to get the Blogger version of my picture on Blogger where I want it, I had to upload it under my test blog.

Bitches.

Blogger is a little bitch about hotlinking images. So when you host your own blog, you can forget about using that handy photo upload tool. You'll have to use your own hosting space or a service like Flickr. For the moment I'm choosing to host my own images. To get those new images to work, I had to dig through my archives and edit every post that used a photo uploaded to Blogger. Bitches.

Also, CPanel is not for the faint of heart.
