Is there a quick way to pull twitter profile image in PHP or Javascript? I need to get the url of the FULL image (not avatar size). Thanks. Any code sample is good.
Twitter has had a nice simple URL.
https://api.twitter.com/1/users/profile_image/abraham
It has size options like "?size=bigger"
You can read more about it on Little known Twitter and TwitterAPI tips and tricks.
Twitter now has documentation up as GET users/profile_image/:screen_name.
Update: Support for this method has been removed from v1.1 of the API. Recommended practice going forward is GET /users/show and cache profile_image_url locally in your service/app.
