Facebook groups get Timeline-like cover photos

Some Facebook groups now have cover photos, making them more consistent with the new Timeline design.

The default image is a collage of the group members’ profile photos, which link to individual profiles. The image is slightly transparent, but colors are restored when a user hovers over it. We’ve heard that any member has the option to change the cover photo, though we haven’t been able to test this ourselves. It is surprising that non-admins would be able to change the image, but there may be a setting that allows or disallows this.
