I uploaded a picture and posted it on my wall but I realized that I uploaded the wrong copy of the picture. Is there anyway I can "update" the picture in that post without actually have it show up as a completely new post?
I want to keep all of the comments, etc links to the photo. Is this possible?
My understanding of the "Hide this post" functionality is that it will hide that post and all future comments, like etc on that particular post.
If another friend posted the same picture again you would have to hide that post too. Facebook isn't intelligent enough to recognise, what are essentially, duplicate posts.
Just click "Share" in the bottom right menu
If you are in the overlay display, or bottom left if you're on the picture's page

No. You can't "replace" a picture in Facebook. You'll have to delete the wrong one and upload the correct one.
