  Are you using Publicize? http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/
  Publicize isn’t customizable. Manually posting to FB via your Sharing buttons works better and allows you to choose the image.

  You can also enable sharing buttons on your posts, pages and index pages.

  You can have Facebook like & share buttons on your posts.

  When I share a post or share a link on FaceBook, the link pulls in WordPress’ .gif/logo and not one of my own. How do I insure that it pulls the image I want. PLEASE help.

  There are many threads on this issue and the best I can do to help you is what I posted above. Manually posting to FB via your Sharing buttons works better and allows you to choose the image.
