I figured out the other day how to find a person’s Facebook profile page from an image linked to that profile.
For example: say someone posts a photo from their Facebook page on an internet forum. The photo URL will look something like this:
http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs213.ash2/47632_591801253534_
15302248_33857587_6862829_n.jpg
The member ID for the Facebook user is in that URL - it’s the group of numbers in bold, after the second underscore from the left. In my case, it’s 15302248.
So, in order to find the URL for that person’s Facebook profile, just go to
http://facebook.com/profile.php?id=15302248.There you go! It’s super easy… perhaps TOO easy. Everyone should keep in mind that they’re basically advertising their Facebook profile whenever they post a direct link to an image they uploaded to their Facebook account.
