[twitter-dev] TweeteRapid

2010-10-03 Thread Naren
Hi,
 I created a C# .NET 4.0 Twitter application called
tweeterapid. http://code.google.com/a/tweeterapid . In displaying the
user's picture is it calculated as a request each time it is
retrieved? The api limitations makes me impossible to fetch pictures.
Is there any way to overcome this problem. Please provide me some tips.

If you use the URL that is provided in a user data block, it doesn't count. If 
you use the forwarding URL for profile photos, that does count.

Ratelimited Forwarding URL:
https://api.twitter.com/1/users/profile_image/dordotky 

Not Ratelimited:
