  I just transfer from spaces.live.com.
  But I can’t find my photos and albums in the new site.
  How can I find them? Are they just gone?
  I thought it were as the old one.
  Who can help me?

  If you are referring to the blog linked to your username, I see photos on the blog. Was it a different blog you need help with?

  In case you haven’t, you should probably have a look at the two stickies at the top of the front page of the forums welcoming Live Space users.

  Welcome!

  We don’t have photo albums on wp.com. It seems you can still access your albums though, at least for now. You can upload images to your media library and insert them as a gallery in a new post.

  As a note: photo albums that were not inserted into posts are *not* imported with your Windows Live Space. You find those images by checking Windows Live Photos.

  If your photos were used within posts on your space, they will have been imported to WordPress.com.

  If you only had them in a Windows Live Photos or Windows Live Skydrive storage area or album, they will not be moved to WordPress.com – you can still log in to those services and find your images there.

  Photos still remain on live.com on the left side of your profile page u’ll see Photos button. They should have been imported to wordpress somehow.

  Please don’t hijack threads. Your blog has no entries at all. If you have a Live photo album issue, take it up with Microsoft.

  What is the point of this new format then? It’s pretty much useless. Would have been nice to know that it didn’t actually transfer my photo albums before I wasted my time setting up this site. Definitely no point in using this site. Thanks a lot :(

  If you want a blog, WordPress.com is great. If you want photoalbums, what are you doing registering at anything other than Flickr?

  @bunnybutt6, The information on what is exported from your LS blog was posted in the LiveSpaces user forums. http://windowslivehelp.com/thread.aspx?threadid=8105174a-0041-44a4-b101-b4837355fea9

  Also, please read the stickies for LiveSpaces refugees at the top of the forums or even 1tess’ post above.
