Any compensation payable to the aggrieved party by your infringement which is proved in the court of law will be payable by the person who submitted it.

Usually Facebook will not allow you to use an image to share an image or photo unless you are sharing it internally among friends where it is common understanding that your friends will be allowed to share your photos and vice versa.
