How can I display the users profile pic using the facebook graph api?

Question

I would like to display the users profile picture inside of my applications canvas page, is there a way to do that using the graph api?

I know I can do it using FBML

Answer 1

EDIT: So facebook has changed it again! No more searching by username - have amended the answer below...

https://graph.facebook.com/{{UID}}/picture?redirect=false&height=200&width=200

• UID = the profile or page id
• redirect either returns json (false) or redirects to the image (true)
• height and width is the crop
• does not require authentication

e.g. https://graph.facebook.com/4/picture?redirect=false&height=200&width=200
