Facebook Question

Calling all Facebook fiends! Lidia and I have a question:

There was a patron who had noticed on her daughter's facebook profile that the profile pictures of her friends on the left side of the screen were not visible; it only showed names. She would like to make her profile the same way. Her profile was the normal view - showing names and profile pictures of her friends, but she didn't want to see the pictures for some privacy issue. Do any of you know how to do this? We tried searching the privacy settings, account settings, and asking google, but we cannot figure this out.

Thanks!

  1. Hi Sarah!
    If you go to Account > Privacy Settings there's a section called "Connecting on Facebook." Click "view settings" and then look for "See Your Friend List." You can set the Friend List to "Only Me" and then when anyone else looks at your profile, they won't see the list of names. (You will still see it when you are on your own profile.) I don't know how to list the names without the photos, though!

  2. Thanks. I think it is impossible and the patron may have been mistaken about what she saw and was just confusing herself.
