View Privacy Protected Facebook Profile Picture: We often come across Some profiles with Unclickable profile pictures (display photos) on Facebook. Unclickable Profile Pictures are, The FB Profile Pictures Which won’t open in FB image viewer when clicked on it. For clickable profile pictures, We can see the source image, the uploaded original picture. These clickable images are not privacy protected. The images that are privacy protected become unclickable. They won’t respond when we click on them in the profiles, i.e We can’t open in the Image Viewer in FB. They are protected with privacy setting “Only ME” or “Friends Only”.

Genius. But, this scares me. This means no matter how you set the privacy on your profile, someone with this knowledge will still be able to view it. Ayayay! :)
Sadly..Yes….. But i'm sure When Some day Facebook considered this as a real Privacy issue…. It won't work any more.. :)… <br />Incase You don't know.. a simple Google chrome extension called "Facebook Zoom" can show the full picture of Any profile pictures(even if it's protected) just by hovering your mouse over that.. Soon i'll write a Post on that, Keep
not working dude
Thank You Vysakh for letting me know this…. after your comment i checked some profiles and i found out that the url is different for some profiles.. For those different URLs Just Remove the following part from the URL "v/t1.0-1/p160x160/" and Press Enter for the full picture.. If you still got problem, Feel free to Comment..
I've tried tweaking the URL multiple times with the "v/t1.0-1/p160x160/" part, but it's always just "Content not found".
Hello Sayanta.. Can you post the URL here on which you are trying..
i think facebook took care of this hack. it is not working anymore?
unfortunately YES.. They did.. but it's still working on some accounts. <br />Facebook used to fit the select area in the picture as the profile picture (more like zooming) but now they are cropping the picture to the selected area before uploading it as profile picture, that's why we can't see the full picture now..
