I am using the javascript api and am stuck in the same place.
I looked a the code for the photos in the google contacts app, it does
this:
<img src="/c/photos/private/
AIbEiAIAAAAiCLfO2fvd-9qh7AEQrJfVuNu__cMcGNaH75CiyNSiowEwAZuUwWI6ElQkzCaAqGjCHmZM0BiX"
style="" exists="true" onload="fixImage(this, 96);
UI_attachAndDisplayAllWidgets(this);" onerror="doEvent
('PICTURE_ERROR', 'contactId', this.getAttribute('contactid'))"
height="96" width="96" contactid="193" gtype="photopicker.PhotoPicker"
id="ContactPicture-present">
Would we need to implement a function like one the ones used by google
to make the url useable?
