Need to update old photo
-
I seem to have a new photo of myself successfully set up as my gravatar. Good.
But every time wordpress shares my latest post to Facebook (a link I laboriously set up some time ago and cannot now remember how) the thumbnail of the post is accompanied by a very old photo of me. This seems to be the photo that my blogsite still thinks is THE image for this blog. I can find no store of photos on wordpress where I might delete this picture. I can find no way to update this picture. Can anybody help me, please?
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.

Interesting. Thank you. So if I delete that photo from my FB photo album, it might choose another one, which might be newer? I shall try that.

You’re probably right. Certainly deleting the offending photo from FB has made no difference. I’ve just spent half an hour looking for a debugger on FB, without success – so it looks like I’ll just have to live with it.
Thanks for your input.
