Alex,

Great product, love it, one of the best.

I am trying to really go for full integration. I am working with the log in with FB credentials. It all works but the FB profile pic has changed but the old one still shows in the JFBConnect module on the left of the page. I even changed it in CB. It has been a few days since the change on FB.

My mistake! I did not change the profile picture on my FB account. I changed it on my FB Fan Page.

Now it appears that the picture from my Facebook profile JFBC is using is the thumbnail picture. Look how small it is.

Spike,
Sorry for not responding to this sooner, and glad you figured out the image problem. I was a little stumped when I read it the other day and was meaning to get to it this weekend :)

As for the image size, in the JFBCLogin module are the following options:
Profile Width (in px)
Profile Height (in px)
Picture Quality

If you mess with those settings, you should be able to resize the image to something better. As you go bigger, make sure you increase the Picture Quality setting though.

Hope that fixes you up, but if not, just let us know!
Alex

Thanks Alex! As always your customer service is excellent.

I love this product. I have found that if I "like" or "comment" on my web site material as my FB user, the way it posts to FB is awesome. It looks really cool.

I tried the Linked In "like" button for the first time and that's exactly the format for posting on Linked In I've been looking for. I'm going to get up and running with Google + next.

I have noticed that you must be using your personal FB profile to use the social widgets. When I try to use my FB Fan Page it says I need to go back to my personal FB profile. Is that an FB thing?

I went back to Joomla Extensions to give you another review but you're only limited to one :(

Yes, you need a Facebook Profile to Like and Comment on things. Facebook's wants only input from "People" when using the social widgets. Otherwise, things can get commercial or detached from personal views. That's been a long-held philosophy for Facebook, which is why Pages and Applications have to be created by a 'person'.

As for the re-attempt at a review, we appreciate it, but alas, it's only one per person. We're very happy you enjoy JFBConnect so much!

Thanks,
Alex
