I made the jump when it first became available and once I figured out where things were it's been okay. BUT I keep things super simple so I"m not sure how I would feel if I did anything more custom. My big problem is somehow I changed the settings for how photos open and it's driving me CRAZY and when I remember I never have time to fix it. But that's my computer not Blogger. Love love the Secret Garden video and the Tokyo walking tour. If I ever head up to Michigan I'm adding Brys Estate to my Must Do list.

Wordpress made a similar change a while back and it created a lot of drama and chaos. I will say though, in case you do decide to make a change, that I do enjoy the Wordpress platform as a whole. I'm not tech savvy at all and have always found it fairly straightforward to use.

If I were you, I'd ride it out to see if you like the new template and interface. If you don't, send me an email.

We are lucky to live in a place full of greenery on our doorstep, so no shortage of places to walk at the moment, however I am missing being by the sea - we tend to travel to the coast once a year, and for us that just won't be this year... So your photos are appreciated by me for that reason.<br /><br />I'm with Blogger and currently am just going along with the changes - but it is pretty frustrating when you get in the swing of things and they throw changes and new things to learn on you!<br /><br />Happy reading and a lovely week to you.Reading with Jadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00776146295033934487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-22797272972777275532020-08-02T19:14:34.592-07:002020-08-02T19:14:34.592-07:00I hate the new Blogger dashboard.

There is a definite learning curve, especially with the new editor everyone complains about. I felt like writing a post took 3 times as long as it should have! I'm getting the hang of it now though. My Blogger blog was so large (almost 1100 posts, even after deleting things that didn't seem terribly important), I couldn't get WordPress to import it automatically. I paid $10 for a premium plugin called Blogger Importer Extended - Redirects enabled. It worked like a charm and was worth every penny. I highly recommend it if you take the WordPress route. Good luck with whatever you choose!Jen at Introverted Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04804424405257091608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-5838651753300010342020-08-02T13:35:19.352-07:002020-08-02T13:35:19.352-07:00I could sit in the lavender for days!
