Again, if you have questions about WordPress.com, please let us know.

Could you send us a screenshot of the page where you're seeing this? and send it to us by e-mail?

Thank you.

The short answer to your question is "no;" if you would like more information, please read on.

The Tumblr importer for WordPress assumes that you will be leaving the content on WordPress/WordPress.com or a system that understands WordPress content if you are to export that data later.

When you import images from a Tumblr blog, they are placed into a gallery automatically and the method you are using to import that into Blogger doesn't "understand" these galleries or how they work.

We'd love it if you would move your blogs to be here with us at WordPress.com; if you need any help or have any concerns about that, please let us know and we'll be happy to answer your questions about our service.

Thanks!

When I go to Upload and Select Files, it shows me so-called "Allowed Files" and won't load my photos. I get an IE Box stating, "Internet Explorer is not responding" and with the options to Close the Program or Wait for the Program to Respond. Then Windows attempts to find a solution and displays a window of the appropriate folder of photos. Is there a way to download the ones I want from here?
Or do I have another issue entirely.
Thanks so much for your help.

If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first.

Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

If you are running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com please do these four things:

1. Try clearing your browser’s cache:

http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050

2. Make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled: http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

3. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.

4. Try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

If it’s still happening, let us know exactly which browser (and version of it) you’re using by checking here if necessary http://www.whatbrowser.org/ and also post any error reports you get.

Align-left means position left, with the rest of the content wrapping around the right side of the image.
Align-right means position right, with the rest of the content wrapping around the left side of the image.
Align-center means position center, with no wrap-around (= the rest of the content below the image).
To prevent the staggered effect what you do is insert the following snippet of code into the HTML editor after each image/text pair:
<div style="clear:both;"></div>

If you are working in the Visual editor, to get single spacing between paragraphs hold the SHIFT key down and simultaneously click ENTER at the end of the paragraph.

If you are working in the HTML (Text) editor, a single click of ENTER will give you a single-spaced line, and two clicks of ENTER will result in double spaced lines. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/09/13/wordpress-formatting-and-spacing/

P.S. When you create a new post, always make sure the Format tool is set to Paragraph before you start typing. It's in the Visual editor Row 2 first position "style". See the illustration here http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2 If you forget to do that then edit the post, highlight all in the Visual editor, select Paragraph from the Format tool, switch editor to Text then switch back to Visual and click Update.

Thanks, Cathy

If you are not referring to the Gallery feature, could you be more specific? TIA

Thanks so much for the help!

Benefits include being able to use any free theme you find online, but again - most of these are not supported in an ongoing way.

If you follow the directions at the link above, it should be clear how to use the .com features to set up your domain. You can set up the domain first and then get the custom design upgrade when you decide it's necessary.

This page has more information about domain mapping:

http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/

Moving to .org would give you the ability to use a domain, but you also need to set up your own hosting, install the opensource WordPress yourself with your own mySQL database, and so on. If you decide you are up to figuring out these things on your own, you can find resources at the http://www.wordpress.org before you make your decision.

Until you've done that, yes, you don't need to purchase upgrades, but you may decide that it's going to be easier for you to get the domain upgrade through the .com version of WordPress (along with the support and ease that comes with it.)

Totally true that you need the custom design upgrade to change the theme css, though, but I think that's not what's causing the issue here.

It actually looks like there is a larger file that is being downsampled with inline css and then upsampled again by the theme.

If you inspect the source or click on the image you can see that this file exists:

There are enough dots to make a 300px wide picture, but those pixels are trying to fill a much larger area so the spaces between them are filled with "guesses" about what should be there.

Here is a picture of the screen you'll see when you are uploading an image: http://en.support.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/image-settings1.png
Note #7 where it says, "Size." You have to scroll down to see the bottom part of that picture, but it allows you to choose full or large sized images.
Here is the whole support article where that picture came from:
