Facebook Sharing - Thumb Preview

hbashew May 01, 2012 11:22PM EDT

The home page has no images, only embedded vimeo. Is there a way to specify an image (jpg, png, gif etc) which is located elsewhere on the site?
Thank you.

Facebook doesn't work like the other AddThis buttons. Instead of accepting parameters that we pass it, Facebook requests the URL you're sharing and gets the data it displays from the meta and link tags in the header. To control how your page is shared on Facebook you should use OpenGraph tags which are described in Facebook's documentation here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
