This has been done for a while on the old style format.  Basically you make a template in photoshop down to the pixel, to get your spacing, then you cut out the images for upload.

But, yeah, I love this 'out of the box' presentation:)

bucky - just curious, but why did you call it a "fangate" ?

To me that maps with Watergate and all the other gates since, setting aside Bill Gates for the moment, and that evokes "scandal"

The page serves as a "gate" that is shown to people who have not yet liked the company, encouraging them to become fans / like before they visit the wall etc.

Ergo: fan gate

Thanks Buckworks. I just always jump to gate = scandal -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_scandals_with_%22-gate%22_suffix
