Hi there,

This is what I see when I do a test post on Facebook, which looks like the proper image to use: http://s1.postimg.org/3rz4zd5sf/Screen_Shot_2014_11_18_at_9_58_53_AM.png

I'm not sure how Facebook determines the picture to use for a post. Since this all takes place on the Facebook-side of things, I'm not aware of a way to manipulate the Facebook script to grab certain images.

Best,

Chris

Hi Chris.

Another detail that caught my eye, but not sure if it is you I have to ask. I linked this post to Facebook: http://www.lightcurvefilms.com/rosettas-comet-touchdown/ and I get the image (thumbnail of the video) related to the previous post (http://www.lightcurvefilms.com/beyond-the-red/). The title of the post is OK though...
See the FB post at https://www.facebook.com/maarten.roos.77/posts/302096363334762 !

Can you advice?!

Thx!

Maarten
