Changing hosting provider

I want to change my hosting provider from Powweb to GoDaddy. How will this impact my PhotoPost account and Pictures? How can I make this a seamless transition? Please advise. Thanks.

I have a site that I changed from GD to Powweb and I find them much more reliable. Out of interest, why are you going to GD?

Price + all of my other sites are hosted at GD.

Moving a host is not a simple task; basically you have to move all your files, your entire database and then manually update any paths you change in your config files and in your database. Assuming you do all that, you should be good to go. I don't have a specific instruction sheet for moving servers, but assuming they use the same image generators and such you wouldn't need to change anything else.

Can you help me do it? Does PhotoPost have a service for this?
