You know how when you click on the "Like" button on some websites, it generates a preview image from an image in the article? I would like to know if it's possible to do that in DNN's blog. Right now, I have tried using the FB code for the "like" button, but it usually either doesn't pick up an image or uses the wrong image.

I know you can click on the share button, at the end of the blog, but, sometimes the buttons work better if they're placed in other spots, like under the image. 

You can't use the og:image parameter in the head, because the blog is, essentially, one page. It would have to change for each article, and I don't know how that would be possible, without some kind of scripting. 

Facebook is complex and cryptic enough, as it is! lol.

I know I wrote "Blog" in the title, but this really applies to a lot of situations.

Anyone have any experience with this? What are your thoughts?
