Would it be possible to add a facebook "Share" button to the template use to show QSL cards? By that, I mean the little window that pops up when one clicks "display" in the logbook or archives. I've seen people saving their card and pasting them to facebook, and I think this would be great exposure for eQSL, given the crazy popularity of Facebook amoung hams.

Just an idea to help with exposure of this great system!

I just ran a few tests and realized whomever is to view the eQSL card must also be logged into eQSL for it to work. Would be nice to somehow send or share a public version of the card image to a facebook page as a "share" or "like". Anyone have any ideas in a way to do this with just a click or two??

Yes, that is the only way to do it. When you view an eQSL card, that card is generated on the fly, the card itself is not stored on the system.

There is a facebook like button at the bottom of the member profile page though.
