Can't get picture to display on Facebook
-
Every time I write a blog I post it to Facebook. I don’t always put photos into my posts, but on my most recent post I did and it won’t show up in the thumbnail in my Facebook post. I know you don’t control what Facebook pulls – but I can post virtually any other link into my status and it will pull an image from that site.
Do I need to be tagging the photo or something in order to get Facebook to recognize it as such?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
We have no control over the images that Twitter, Facebook or any other social networks chooses to display or when they choose to flush their image caches. We really only send them the URL of the post, and they hunt through that for the excerpt and images to include.

Like I said, I can post virtually any other link from any other site and have my thumbnail or an even larger photo display. I find it hard to believe there’s not anything that can be done on WordPress’ end.
