  I have a blog — http://www.sturtle.com — and I’ve become pretty frustrated with my hosting provider. I’ve purchased a WordPress.com pro bundle and imported all my posts, pages, and links to sturtle.wordpress.com in the hopes of hosting my site here.

  So far everything’s gone smoothly, except for one major problem: none of the 369 images on my existing site were imported when I imported my posts and pages. The image “src” attribute points back to the folders on my WordPress.org webhost.

  If this were a new blog, I wouldn’t worry too much about that, but I’ve got over 2500 posts spanning nearly 12 years, and the thought of reattaching all that media by hand is enough to make me sick.

  Little help, please?
