View non-public profile photos in full size (Facebook)

You may have run into the issue of trying to find someone using Graph Search, only to discover you can’t quite make out their identity via their teeny-tiny profile picture. If said user has set their photo to private (in other words, if they’ve set it to be visible only ‘to me’), you won’t be able to see the full-sized photo

The Trick

With this trick, you will be able to view any profile picture as full-sized, regardless of whether or not it’s marked as private.

How to do it

1. Go to the profile picture you’d like to see and open it in a new tab or window (on Mac, Ctrl-Click and then ‘Open Image in New Tab’, on PC, right click and then ‘Open Image in New Tab’).

2. Go to new tab or window, to the address bar. You should see a portion of the url that looks something like this:

3.Change 173 and 173 and, 160 and 160  to 720 and press enter, the full size photo is there for you. (sometimes it might be a different number instead of 173 and 160, whatever that number is, just change it to 720) Press Enter!
