  I requested to cancel blog on 1/30. I have since changed my mind. My account still shows my blog address as I would like to use it, but when I try to create my blog it errors out stating that the blog address is already taken. It’s taken by me…so I’m confused.

  flashoverphotography.wordpress.com is no longer available.The authors have deleted this blog.

  I’m sorry but reclaiming a deleted blog URL is not possible. It takes bypassing 3 warnings that blog deletion is irreversible and clicking a confirmation link in an email to delete a blog for good reason ie. deleted blog URLs are not recycled.

  You can register another blog with a similar name. http://en.support.wordpress.com/register-a-blog/

  Or you can register a domain via a domain mapping upgrade and it will not matter what the underlying .wordpress.com address is.
