I'm using the command "FB.ShareLink" to share a FB post.
When i try to share this picture:
http://sheep-service.info/TheOfficeQuest/Pics/pic.png
It share the post with empty picture.
But, when i try to share the same picture from different location:
http://i.imgur.com/UenxpGW.png
It shares the post with this picture.
So my questions is: Why does the picture shows only from the second location? do i need to configure something on my facebook app page?
When i post a video link on FB wall, the first time the thumbnail appears,
then i delete the link from the box, and write it again, this and now the thumping dissapers.
this is a link for example, the first time facebook will show it.

Regarding the conversation above, it's Facebook's mechanism. Can't help. Assuming you are the writer of the page, you have already put the correct OG tags to the page head, so nothing you can do.
I'm designing a photo-oriented Facebook app that would let users tell stories in the app-specific way and advertise such stories by posting a single, preferably large, "cover" photo. Photo posting is done by the app and people that would like to see the story need an easy and obvious way of being redirected to the corresponding app-generated page. So hence is the question.
Is it possible for a Facebook app to post a maximally large (column-wide) photo on the user's behalf, so that when others (non-users included) click on the photo, it takes them to a specific page that is related to the app instead of zooming into the photo by default? If not, what would be the best workaround?
To get the maximum large photo on news feed, you should look into user generated photos, which requires two additional parameters you add to your open graph action to indicate that the user-generated photo should have maximum photo display on news feed and ticker.
Example OG POST:
https://graph.facebook.com/me/nyccookbook:cook?
recipe=http://www.yourdomain.com/pizza.html&
image[0][url]=http://www.yourdomain.com/images/my_camera_pizza_pic.jpg&
image[0][user_generated]=true&
access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
If the photo is not user-generated, then explicit sharing is an alternative to get maximum display size on news feed and ticker provided that you follow all the requirements and guidelines for explicit sharing.
when others (non-users included) click on the photo, it takes them to a specific page that is related to the app instead of zooming into the photo by default
This is not possible because FB users expect the behavior to zoom the photo in when clicking on it. If clicking on a photo launches an URL, it is a bad user experience because that is not what anyone expects when clicking on a photo on FB.
The best workaround I can think of is to edit the description of the image with a link to your specific page on your app, such that when a FB user sees the picture, they can click the link in the description to go where you want.
How to post a picture to a specific album in page from app without posting the image on page wall? Currently I can post picture to a specific album, but I don't want to see that on page wall becouse the app will post a lot of pictures. So how that is possible?
This is an example of app that uploads generated picture to specific album but dosn't publish it on its wall, I'm trying to do the same.

Yes this is possible by providing no_story parameter equal to 1 while uploading photo.
POST https://graph.facebook.com/ALBUM_ID/photos?no_story=1
This information once was documented for photo object, but not anymore exists in current documentation.
This is described in Developer Blog post: Suppressing auto-generated feed stories when uploading photos
I have an app with a comment box inside it, which I inserted as a social plugin
<fb:comments href="https://apps.facebook.com/myappname"></fb:comments>
When a user posts a comment using that comment box, Facebook does not show the correct image. With Facebook debug I can check that the Open Graph tags for the page of my application use the application icon as image - which is what I had expected.
Still, when a user uses this comment box, on his profile appears a random image from my app. Is there a way to fix this?
