Platform Update: 180 Pixel Profile Pictures, Fighting Bugs, Startup Day
The Platform Update for this week on the Facebook Developers Blog discussed how the pic_big
Graph API call will soon return a slightly smaller version of a user’s profile picture, Facebook’s efforts to reduce its backlog of bugs, and its recent Startup Day.
The December 2010 profile redesign slightly reduced the maximum size for profile pictures from 200 pixels wide to 180 pixels. Since newly uploaded profile pics won’t have a 200 pixel version, Starting March 1st the Graph API call pic_big
that returns the largest available version of the profile pic may only return 180 pixel wide photos.
