In addition to commenting on photos, you can "like" photos, which indicates your specific interest or personal approval for particular photos.

Comment on a Facebook Photo

- Click on the "Comment" link located below the photo you want to comment on. A blank comment field will open and prompt you to enter a comment.

- Press the "Delete" button that displays in the pop-up window. Your comment will then be removed from that particular Facebook photo indefinitely.
Like or Unlike a Facebook Photo
- Navigate to any Facebook photo that you want to "like" or "unlike." Liking a photo will indicate that you favor that particular photo, and will give other Facebook users the option to connect with you based on your interest.
- Click on the link labeled "Like" or "Unlike" located below the Facebook photo. If you press "Unlike," the photo will no longer display in your personal profile as an interest.
