Blogs usually have an option of providing the feed in full or partial
feed. The overblog users seems to have partial feeds. You can ask them
to turn full feed ON (if overblog allows it) but it is entirely the wish
of the author about what kind of feeds they want to provide. So its not
planetplanet's fault, its the configuration on the author's side.
The small thumbnail sized images also seem to be due to partial feeds.
If you check the feeds of the individual blogs, they have the thumbnail
images instead of full-sized ones.
