"Be Social" to Facebook linking to large view of photo rather than gallery

I just posted a gallery to Facebook through the "Share>Be Social" button. I was on the view of page one of the gallery I wanted to share. I chose a thumbnail to represent it, from the 10 or so it showed me. But I found when you click on either of the links on Facebook (remember, there's the odd thing where there's a big long link as well as a link through the gallery's title), the links both take you to one large view of a photo and NOT to the entire gallery's page one. It should take you to page one of the gallery instead. Actually, I should re-state that: For a brief instant, you see page one of the gallery. But it quickly disappears and you're left with just the large view of the photo you chose as your representative thumbnail for the gallery. I had to add a note explaining to my FB friends to click on "close" to get to the gallery... not exactly intuitive.

As a matter of fact, there have been various actions this week which have been unexpectedly taking me to a large view of a photo rather than to a gallery. I'm going to try to recall which actions they were & post back here. Right now I just can't recall. I'm on a Windows Vista system with FF 3.6.6 as the browser.

    Thanks Anna Lisa. We are working on some changes to the way the Facebook stuff works. Hopefully that will fix this problem. --Doc
