Use Facebook sync ONLY for pictures

When I tried to sync my facebook account with my droid it screwed up all my contacts. I list my contacts on my phone and google contacts as last name, first name. However, when I would sync with facebook, some, and only some, of my contacts would change to first name, last name on my phone but not on google calendars. So, I would have all my contacts listed as last name, first name, but a few rogue contacts would change to first name, last name on my phone.

Syncing with facebook is a cool features, but I stopped using it because it was screwing up my contact order.
 
Facebook profile pic sync only

I didn't think it would work but it did.
  1. go to FB profile of person whose pic you want
  2. right click on profile pic desired and send email (to Droid)
  3. detach pic to Droid SD card
  4. open contact, get to edit screen
  5. click on where photo SHOULD be, Droid will open pics
  6. Click on pic you emailed
On my Droid, it imported all FB profile data which is OK by me but doesn't solve original question I guess?? Oh well
