"Trash this thread"

In an effort to share the wealth found on DU, I fairly frequently post items to my Facebook wall. The "Trash this Thread" link follows along and appears to remain active.

How can I stop this from happening? Does the program need a fix?

Thanks,

I don't really understand the issue. Is the "trash this thread" link the only link that gets passed to Facebook?

6. On some websites you can choose the image

from the page you're posting or no image at all.

7. I think I know what's happening.

It appears to me that if the DUer has selected an image for their profile, it carries over when one posts to Facebook. If there is no image, or a link is being posted to Facebook, then the space where the image would go picks up the "Trash this thread" image. Hope this helps.

Let me know if this has been fixed next time you post something from DU on Facebook?

Thanks.
