This article explain about How to Using the Facebook Photo Bar. Every Facebook Page has a series of five photo thumbnails that display across the top of the Wall. Any photo you upload to your Page will be added to your photo bar. Though you can remove photos, you can’t re-order them.

By using small thumbnails that randomly shift in order, Facebook is trying to prevent companies using the photo bar as a banner ad by stitching images together. Even so, many Facebook Pages are putting the photo bar to good use.

Even if your business is non-visual (for example, maybe you’re a freelance writer), I would still strongly suggest filling out your photo bar with five good photos. To help you, here are a number of ideas for ways to use your photo bar:

• Product thumbnails. If you run a business that sells products, showcase them here.
• Recent work. If you’re someone who does visual, creative work, showcase it in your photo bar. This is especially useful for freelancers, who can use it as a mini portfolio.
• Articles you’ve written. If your blog posts have images (they should!) you can use these as thumbnails, and link to the full article in the photo description.
• Photos of you, or your team. You can use the photo bar for up to five headshots.
• Community pictures. This could be photos of your fans, or photos of fans interacting with your brand at conferences or community events.

If you want to add a picture to your photo bar without publishing it on your Wall, upload it as normal. When it gives you the option to “Publish” or “Skip,” select “Skip.”
