Problem with OG defaults

The proper behavior for Facebook is that it should deterministically choose the first og:image tag in the head of the document for events that a picture is automatically included. If that's not happening, and Facebook is using either, that's a bug on their part. It's something I'm sure we can fix too, but we'd need to investigate more if this will be fixed by them or why it's happening at all.

Having multiple images does let a user select an image to use in cases where they are presented a choice, like when they do a status update and include a link to your page. Without that choice though, the first image is what's supposed to be used as long as it meets FB's criteria for image dimensions and other stuff.

Let us know if that's not the case,

We'll have to investigate further as to why Facebook is doing what it's doing.

Not sure why it's not being used, and we're hesitant to remove the default from the page because, on many sites, users set invalid photos (usually too small) and so the default is used. From a support perspective, having something show is better than nothing.

I'll let you know what we find. I'm honestly not sure how difficult it would be in our code to prevent the default from showing off-hand. Probably not overly difficult though.
