Try Cache Images which adds images from any domain (including all Blogger's domains much smarter than Blogger Image Import) to WordPress media library and default upload directory. If you have any issues with it or have questions/requests, feel free to send them to me.

This plugin would be great if some of these issues were solved? Are the plans to update the plugin?

I used this plugin today for a client, it’s a pretty good start. I made a couple of modifications to handle non-standard upload directories and loosened up the regex a bit to grab more images.

Ultimately, it missed about 10% of the images with about 1% of that being images wrapped in links that weren’t the image itself.

I’ll probably make a few more modifications to it to handle multiple image types. (It originally only handled jpg and I had gif and png files as well. I just did a quick search/replace and uploaded it again to deal with the other types for now.)

Is this plugin on wordpress.org? Who manages the plugin, eventually the modifications I’m making could be useful to other people.

I see the same issue. Even though they end up under /blogger/ all posts are still referring to blogspot.com

I just ran this on a few images with the lates (2.9.2) version of Wordpress. It seems to be moving the images over, however the new URLs are coming through as “http://mydomain.com//blogger/_cyone-pfcK8blahblah” rather than “http://mydomain.com/wp-content/uploads/blogger/etc”

I don’t know enough PHP to hack the script but it seems like it should be something pretty simple. Hope someone can troubleshoot the issue so the script remains useful. Anyone else seeing this?
