I wanted to post Kri's Art of the Day today on my FB page, but kept getting the next two day's AOD when I hit the FB button. (Saturday then Sunday's, today is Friday) Not a biggie, but I can't get her particular AOD to post. I've had that happen before and I just don't post it that day. But I really like her painting and would like to. ?

Hmmm, that's odd. I've seen it on FB a number of times today with the correct art. Let me check into what's up. Maybe addthis made changes to their API which would mean we might need to tweak the code on our end...

Ok, so when you LIKE today's AOTD, it works correctly. When you do FB share with it, you have to choose it from one of the jpgs thumbnails associated with the page. When I tried it, KJ's image was second.

I've had that happen on my blog or just about anything else I want to share. I have to arrow across to which pic I want to use. I thought everyone did...lol.

Yipes! I meant Kris Jean's art, not Noelle's! But anyway, I still get the football guy doing it both ways, arrowing over and also with the FB share button.

I'll go into her art case and just share it that way on FB.

Tried both methods, and I still get the picture of the football player that's this coming Sunday's. Interesting... it shows Kris Jean as "about the artist" on the AoD for Noelle too. At least that what I see. I think I'll go right into Noelle's art case and just post it from there for AoD.

To clarify, it's not letting you select which thumbnail to use? What browser, etc, are you using?

Oh, and that said, today's AOTD is a picture of Noelle painted by Kris, so that's likely confusing the issue!

(oops, meant Kris, said Noelle) Still getting the football guy either way I try it. But I think I'll go into her art case and share it on FB that way. I'll just type AoD on it.

Ya, it lets me select the correct thumbnail, but then when the FB screen pops up with the correct title (Welcome to Nightmare) the art is the football guy. I just went into her case and posted it that way though, so it's up on FB.

Hmm... it's happening again today. When I went to click today's art of the day to share on Facebook, I got Friday's. But I did search in the artists port again and found the right one. Wasn't it Wednesday last week that this happened too?
