  Hi,

  I’ve imported a few of my blogs to wordpress.com already, but there’s one that just won’t work. Whenever I do, it gives me a strange line of code.

  You can find a screenshot on the link below: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/61940/transfer/Screen%20Shot%202013-04-01%20at%2023.15.32.png

  Can you help me?

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

  It would appear that the file has been altered.

  I recommend generating a new one from Posterous.

  Hm, maybe something with the upload?

  Have you tried a different browser, like Safari or Firefox for the import process?
