Facebook Photo Code
I consider this the kind of natural extension of the wonderful Facebook codes that you can find here by citadel_icons (which I'm sure most of us use on a regular basis—I know I do). One day I was RPing and said, "y'know, Facebook really just overhauled how pictures look on their site," and I endeavored to create a code that would reflect the current look and feel.

<lj-cut text="Facebook Update for [DATE]>

<td style="color:#000000;background-color:#ffffff" width="300" valign="top"><img src="[[USERPIC]]" width="50" height="50" style="float:left; margin-right: 10px;"> [[CHARACTER NAME]]

<div style="color:#000000;background-color:#EDEFF4; padding:5px;"><img src="http://i49.tinypic.com/2arc7m.png" style="margin-right:5px;"> View all comments.</div></td></tr></table> </center>
</lj-cut>

Pro-Tips:
→ I recommend using an image larger than 400px height and smaller than 650px height
→ If you're mentioning Instagram, it should be a square image
→ If you're looking for a quick way to instagram-ify your pictures, I am partial to the effects on Pixlr Express
→ There's a line in the code to "View on Instagram." You don't need to include this. It's just there in case your character would post to Facebook from Instagram. :)

Examples:
Uno , Dos, Tres, Quatro

Let me know how it works out for you and what you think and if you have any questions. I don't care if you credit. I care more that you comment if you find it useful or identify any bugs in the code :)

((Now if you're looking for a much more awesome and faithful RP code adaptation of Instagram's service, I just think this layout is amazing and beautiful.))
