After a rather tedious and confusing experience, I finally finished my conversion from classic to BOINC.

I sure wish there was a way to translate prior work to the new system. Bummmed....

The good news is I just found and joined Team US Army.

Go Army!

Welcome to Boinc! we have all been through the "growing Pains" and I am sure there will be more to follow. There are alot of knowledgeable people over here just as classic, so any problems, I am sure you will find all the help you need.

And Go Navy!

Respectfully,

All our work in Classic is listed on our account page, but converting would be difficult since Classic used Work Units and BOINC uses a measure (Cobblestones) that is supposed to apply to all sorts of projects that work under BOINC (not just SETI). You'll get used to it in time, as we all have, to some degree.

Welcome to BOINC! You may want to check out the BOINC Synergy site to get the below signature. Also you can add an alien and a BOINC Synergy background to your SETI graphic. Frankly, I like the classic SETI graphic better, but I think overall you will like BOINC. I will check and post what you need to add to your seti graphic.
