I recently moved a Tumblr blog over to Posterous, but have had trouble with some of the code translating. Specifically, the posts aren't making it through. I would certainly appreciate any help identifying and fixing the problem! Thank you in advance.

Hard to tell without seeing the code. First of all, remove "{CustomCSS}" from the end of the CSS (found right above </style>) - it could be throwing things off. If it still doesn't work, there's a good chance you're going to be flat out of luck... =[

Flat out of luck would be sad... Removing the CustomCSS didn't seem to do anything. Posterous advertises the ability to use tumblr theme code, I thought, but this is the second set of code that I've not been able to get work. Thank you for your time, either way.

Here's the theme: http://built.tumblr.com/

Yeah, some import better than others, but none seem to import perfectly.

From a quick glance, I'm not quite sure what's keeping the whole thing from rendering. I'd suggest emailing help@posterous.com and someone might be able to look at it in a bit more detail - maybe even improve Tumblr compatibility (for similar problem themes) in the process.

I did, in fact, already email support, but received "unfortunately, we're a small team and can't afford to debug third party themes." They directed me to the google group for help, but it doesn't appear active in the last few months. Very courteous, but no direct help there. ...Thank you for your prompt responses and time, Cory. I guess I'll have to fall back to tumblr.
