No image thumbnail
-
Hi. I have been trying to get an image thumbnail when sharing my blog posts on my Facebook business page ever since I started a wordpress blog last year. I have tried changing everything as well as debugging the site address at the Facebook link suggested. All I ever get is a transparent image, however. Any ideas? What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Not every theme has featured images; only some do. Your theme does have not them https://wordpress.com/themes/penscratch/
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.
Please read Images in Publicize http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#images-in-publicize

Switching themes https://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/#switch-themes can be easily done, provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the site. Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. You can quickly and easily change themes on any WordPress.COM hosted blog to another one found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and no data will be lost or negatively affected by the change. The only time you may have to do a lot of work is if you are changing to a dramatically different theme with different features and/or if you have done any CSS editing.
Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, Browse themes until you find one you like and click the “activate” or the “preview” link, or type in the name of the theme you want to use when it appears.
The theme customizer https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/ provides a preview function for exactly that purpose ie. so you can view what a theme will appear like prior to changing one.
