Late last year, Blogger blog owners seeking to publicise their blog posts using their FaceBook Wall, were denied that possibility, silently. That problem was recently resolved, though still in silence.
Recently, Blogger blog owners started reporting a new symptom of problems with FaceBook.
Each Internet service has the right, and the responsibility, to block and interfere with spammy or unsafe content, on its service - to protect the legitimate users of its service.
Blogger has been blocking and interfering with spammy and unsafe content for several years - not always well received, but they are doing their best. FaceBook has the same right, and the same responsibility.
This problem appears to involve blog posts that contain pictures hosted on "2.bp.blogspot.com". I'll note that I posted, yesterday, a FaceBook Wall post referencing a Blogger blog post which contains a picture hosted on "4.bp.blogspot.com", with no problem. You can find my test post on my Wall - but you'll have to hunt for it on my FaceBook Wall, since I have not yet learned the technique to extracting and sharing, FaceBook Wall posts, outside FaceBook.
If you, a Blogger blog owner, believe that this is an unjust decision, you need to complain to FaceBook Support. FaceBook Support issues, like Blogger Support issues, are best solved with collaboration. You, and millions of other Blogger blog owners, seeking to publicise your blogs on your FaceBook Wall, can change this recent decision by FaceBook - if and only if everybody affected complains.
But you must complain to FaceBook Support. Not Blogger Support.

Blogger says deal with Facebook.
Would someone just tell me WHAT needs to be removed from my blog so it can be unblocked?
If "2.bp.blogspot.com" is a problem by FaceBook standards, tomorrow somebody may upload a similar photo to "3.bp.blogspot.com" - and any Blogger blog posts that use "3.bp.blogspot.com" will likewise be a problem.
FaceBook has to make their filtering more granular. This will only happen, if everybody who uses FaceBook instructs them to improve their filters.
Sorry, this is not a Blogger problem.
Surely Facebook will resolve this soon
