Thank you for the ICDSoft recommendation.

I did sign up with them and have today migrated the site frozenlight.eu. Not 
completely successfully yet, but I am sure I will get there. This e-mail is 
being sent from the new account, so that part of the migration worked fine. And 
their support seems very good and responsive.

The site I am most concerned about is greatpix.eu, but the good thing is that 
the domain is just used to point to content that is actually hosted on Smugmug, 
and that will not change, so it is just a question of migrating the domain. And 
my weekly blog is with a different provider altogether, in Denmark, so no 
changes needed there.

Thanks again to Moose and Wayne!

Cheers,
Nathan
