I'm using JFBCFan on the front page of www.fancrest.com and if you take a look you will see some photos have been elongated or squashed. What might be causing this?

Diane,
Really not sure. We haven't played with the Fan box in that wide of a view before, but it may simply be Facebook shrinking it to the more 'normal' size of the Fan box that's used (for sidebars and such). You can try using the FB Like-Box configuration tool, on the page below, to see if you get the same results. From what it looks like, Facebook always uses a max-width of about 80-100px, so has some non-standard proportions, it can get squished how you're seeing:
developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/

Let us know how it goes, but unfortunately not anything we can do to control how the actual posts in that widget are displayed.

Thanks,
Alex

I noticed another symptom: my website blog submissions were updating facebook but not your module. Have resolved all of these problems with the NetworkedBlogs App on Facebook. Thank you for the advice anyway It set me thinking there must be another way.

Diane,
Glad to hear you got it going. Still a little confused to exactly how you were using things and pushing content back to Facebook, but either way, glad to hear you got it going.

Should you need anything else, just let us know, and good luck with your site!
Alex
