feed dialog: picture not showing up

Question

My Facebook feed dialog link correctly renders a dialog page, but the image set with the picture parameter does not show up -- just the gray line that indicates no picture.<

Answer 1

I had a similar problem with a .png image

I change the image format to .gif and it resolved itself.

Answer 2

Facebook gets a 404 Error when accessing your images please check your .htaccess file.

Answer 3

For me what solved this was changing the protocol from https to http and changing the image format from png to jpg

Answer 4

Just in case some one still is looking for an answer. I found out that my domain had Hotlink Protection on, that's why it was stopping all images from directly being referenced. So in order for Facebook to reference my images directly, I had to turn off Hotlink Protection. Another alternative (better one, I guess) is only to add facebook.com as an exception to be able to hotlink your images.

My web host was Godaddy.

Answer 5

An alternative problem I experienced was that I had already shared the image to facebook and at that time had authentication enabled for the site, which I then disabled. However when I tried to share with facebook it had seemed to cache the previous issue and that was causing the problem. Changing the file name or trying again later would resolve it. In my case I deleted the image and made a new one (they were dynamic)

Since october 1st 2011 every pagetab needs https too.
