  Trying to delete an old free blog site and start fresh with another address but same email. Instructions say to delete from “Tools” under the Dashboard. When I go to my dashboard, I don’t see “tools”. Help!

  DON’T DELETE YOUR BLOG – THE ADDRESS (URL) / NAME WILL BE GONE FOREVER

  clear the content

  Empty Site:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/

  If you have too much content to empty the site yourself you can have the staff empty the site for you.

  NOTE: Once content is deleted and the Trash emptied you will never get your content back.

  http://lorilymanphotography.wordpress.com/ – is empty – what is the REAL web site you need help with

  If you don’t have tools you are not an Admin or you have a WordPress.ORG install – in that case you are in the wrong forum

  Yes, it is empty, I’d like to delete it totally and start fresh. I’m having trouble changing anything on it and I think maybe starting over would be easier. Hmmm…will check into that; I started the blog years ago, made one post and decided it wasn’t for me-so I definitely should be the administrator.

  Thanks!

  No, starting over will not be easier. Start here: http://learn.wordpress.com and note your posts won’t show until you’ve confirmed the account via email.
