  I used to have a blog hosted somewhere else using wordpress free blogging and I had it backed up by selecting the “back-up to hard drive” option. My host recently deleted my page (which was free off his site so I’m not complaining) and I was wondering if there is a way to transfer my backed up posts and files to re-start my blog. Yes I have created a blog here which I am trying to use the back up files for: http://www.starksart.wordpress.com

  I searched through the forums briefly and couldn’t find any topics that had been resolved for this issue.
  If anyone could offer any suggestion or tips it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
