Unfortunately, we have no control over the images that Facebook 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.

Hello there,
I selected a Blavitar when I started the blog. I then used the "Publicize" feature to link my blog to FB and LinkedIn. I subsequently uploaded a new Blavitar. However, when my new blog posts automatically post to my FB and LI accounts, the old Blavitar still appears.
I tried unlinking and re-linking my FB and LI accounts, but that didn't work. Can you help, please, thanks.

Hi!

My gravitar is appearing as the favicon for my blog, instead of my blog image (blavitar) as set in general settings. I have refreshed my cache, checked on Chrome and Safari, as well as with a friend to confirm. My gravitar is a photo of myself, whereas my blavitar displays the letters dbe.

Thanks for the help.

Hey there!

Unfortunately, it's currently not possible to provide a custom resized image for your 16x16 Blavatar, but we'll definitely consider your comment for our future updates.

Thanks!

I have uploaded my blavitar using a 128x128 image. When it is resized down to 16x16 for use as the site favicon, the resize algorithm makes it look very bad. I have my own 16x16 image that looks much better. How can I use this as the favicon? It's widely recognized that you generally cannot resize a large image to something so small and have it still look right. You usually need to make a custom small image.
