For one thing, tables make your pages a lot larger. More importantly, though, is that CSS lets you separate content from presentation. Recently, I decided to change the color that links on my site turn when the mouse is hovering over them. All I had to do to change that, was add one line in my style-sheet, and all color of all hover links on the 200 pages of this site changed. If I hadn't been using CSS, I would have had to go through and manually change the all the links. It would have been a nightmare. Vitaly, CSS has huge advantages over table-based designs.

It's a pain, but it's normally worth the effort. There is so much more than you can do with WP. I did the same thing from Blogger to WP to hosted WP.

Don't you find it kind of futile that perpetual race with technology forces people to keep migrating from one platform to another, or to keep rewriting software from one OS/language to another without much gain?
