When sharing a gallery to Facebook (and probably other social media services too), non-English characters are left out from the message entirely.

Thanks, that is a known bug and the programmers are aware. --Doc

The same applies for the new Facebook "Like" button. If the image caption contains international characters it will have incorrect formatting when shown on the Facebook wall :(
This renders the "Be Social" and the "Like" functionality more or less useless if it can't handle international characters.

I noticed that the UTF-8 bug in the "Be social" was fixed in the early april update. Well done :)
