Whenever I publish directly from my Smugmug site to FB the software automatically includes the name of the website, the gallery and some text I wrote a long time ago describing my work. The end result is that the actual picture becomes a thumbnail and the text occupies most of the space.

Is there a was to only post the picture and nothing else?

Thanks.

    Go into "share" and grab a photo link.

    Edit the link to look like this changing everything before the /i.... .
    https: //cdn.smugmug.com/photos/i-BL2dWjt/0/44a176c1/S/7D5A0487_7D3-0-S. jpg

    On your site with right-click on and no share button I had to get the link in "page info" > Media
    (https: //photos.smugmug.com/Nature/Colorado/i-xz82SLp/0/e1683ee9/L/DSC_1336-L. jpg)
    example:
    https: //cdn.smugmug.com/photos/i-xz82SLp/0/e1683ee9/M/DSC_1336-M .jpg

    BTW, notice how the grabbed photo link is //photos.smug... instead of your site? No indication of what site it comes from!!!!

    EDIT: I added two spaces to each of the above links. https:(space)// and M(space).jpg
    It was to make the whole link visibly in this post. Remove the spaces.
