Post "as Photo" to Facebook

I don't know if this is technically possible, but currently the options for posting to facebook are unable to render a large photo on the timeline - i.e. the posting process doesn't actually add a photo to the wall, but posts a link and facebook creates a thumbnail. Similary, the option to post as an "update" posts title & body content, but (in my case at least) doesn't post an image.
In contrast, when I send an image from a zenfolio gallery, it posts the photo to the wall directly, resulting in a more impressive posting on the facebook timeline. I'm wondering if it's possible for dlvrit to exhibit this same behaviour - it would be a godsend for photographers and creative types :-) to take full advantage of facebook timeline display.
Thanks

I would also like to vote for this type of integration between feeds and Facebook's timeline view. Before "timeline" we had some control over how images and web page previews displayed in Facebook (by using the Thumbnail Style options). Now in Facebook's timeline view, the thumbnail style selection doesn't seem to matter and the image strictly displays in "tiny thumb - title - short description." (Note: I've only run a few test to date.)
My site is mainly photo posts (amateur photographer) and i would love to be able to post the full image to my FB timeline instead of the thumbnail....this certainly would be a welcome addition.

Yup - if the photos don't post, I'm going to have to find a different delivery service.
