I just tested the image selection on Facebook. While I also see the success story as first image, the second image is the Python logo. The format of the logo image doesn't really fit the Facebook or Google+, so perhaps adding an image which can be used for these is not a bad idea. Does Google+ have a similar standard for defining such images ? We could then add both to not endorse a specific social network. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Feb 25 2013) >>> Python Projects, Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope/Plone.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::::: Try our mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
