[edit] Access Profile Picture Position Dimensions
Our site displays a 100px x 100px square profile picture on a users page, sizing up the 50x50px square pic returned from a users.GetInfo call isn't suitable as the quality is poor, using the standard pic isn't any good because the image can be upto 100x300, so not square.
Our system can retrieve the profile pic, and then we can crop it to 100x100.
The problem is where to crop, we can just favour the middle of the image, but what if the persons face is cut off? Facebook doesn't seem to provide the cordinates that a user sets when they position their profile picture for the thumbnail image. Facebook has resized the image to the width of the thumbnail, and the user drags to get an offset.
Will facebook provide these cords so we can crop the large images more appropriately? 282400013 11:43, 7 June 2009 (PDT)
