Facebook tests larger photos and icons to increase the prominence of links
Facebook is testing a new link format with larger photos and no headline or summary. Another test looks the same as other link posts, but includes a small icon in the bottom right corner to indicate which site the link is to.
With the first test, an image takes up the full width of News Feed, appearing as large as photo posts but being clickable to a third-party website. Previously, if a person or page wanted to share a full-size image along with a link, they had to make a photo post and put the link in the caption.
