Photos on thumbnail links and mobile devices desaturated in color

    Hello,

    When I link my blog post to my FB page, I notice that the thumbnail picture color looks awful and way off from the original image, it much darker and flat than the original picture in the post. I also noticed when viewing my blog on my iPhone, the photo looks desaturated. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

    Thanks in advance!
    Jen

    The blog I need help with is lightfulphotographyblog.wordpress.com.

    I'm sorry but we have no control here over which images how Facebook displays and how they are displayed. What we do know is:

    • Only the first five images uploaded to a post (direct inclusion/gallery/slideshow) will be sent to Facebook. The images size has to be at least 200 x 200 pixels.
    • To select which image will be used for things like Facebook Publicize, you can use a theme that supports featured images. If a featured image isn’t set or your theme doesn’t use featured images, then the code tries to pick the first image in the post or page. If no image is found, then the blavatar is used.

    Color Profiles > If the colors in your uploaded images appear different from the originals, make sure you are saving your images in sRGB before you upload them. read more here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/troubleshooting-images/
