 * I have read almost all the posts on the switch from a wordpress hosted blog, 
   to a wordpress application that posts to a privately hosted domain. I am still
   a little confused on how to proceed with switching my site. I know I have to 
   find a hosting site and download the wordpress program, I a newbie and find it
   tough to understand what is the next step after finding a host.
 * any suggestions?

 * Once you are done with finding a host you may need to transform your content 
   or old data from your previous blog to this new one, try this.
 * Goto WordPress admin,
 * goto Manage > Import and you’ll find there the option to import your old blog
   data to the new site.
 * If you need a wordpress theme made, i am feeling getting my hands dirty in making
   one for you. Just pm me to let me know.
