[SOLVED] Show larger avatar images from Facebook was created by chrizuk
Evening All,
Ok so I've been racking my brains for a few hours now trying to find a way to pull the large picture from a user's Facebook profile.
The original code located in cb.facebookconnect.php
Line 969:
This always returns a the profile picture as a 50x50 image no matter what size your original Facebook profile picture is.
Replace with:
This will always pull the large profile picture (about 200 pixels wide, variable height) according to the API docs.
Hope this helps,
Chris

Thank you for your findings. Have fixed for next release. I don't see this usage documented anywhere however; mind providing source link?

Funnily enough the code never came from the Facebook API docs, I was reading a post over on stackoverflow that related to Apple iOS code (Which I thought strange).
The about 200 pixels wide, variable height part was found in Facebook API docs.
