Has anyone ever done this with a larger sized blog and if so how did you do it without having to manually change all the image links.

Hi everybody,
Well, it's my first post, so why not make it a useful one? (Hopefully).
1) About database, you can as someone said just find/replace all the urls in the database. Personally, I like to do it via phpMyAdmin. Use Export option, then copy the text it generates (sql dump) into text editor, and simply find/replace all urls. Now you can save this with .sql extension. Drop the old database, and import the new one using Import option.
2) About redirects, there are plugins that maybe can help you automate the process, some of them being:
WordPress › Redirection WordPress Plugins
Permalink Redirect WordPress Plugin | SYP
Permalinks Migration Plugin for wordpress : DEAN LEE:/DEV/BLOG
It's not all that hard really, if you need a more detailed explanation just let me know.
