Images are not supported in the current version. Look for the next beta
soon.

 Hi Everyone,

 I'm attempting to use the twittoauth library by Abraham Williams and
 am having a little trouble. I am able to authenticate and get
 everything, for the most part, working properly. The only thing I
 can't do is get the background image to update.

 Function I'm Using in index.php:
 $connection-post('account/update_profile_background_image',
 array('image' = 'images/cool-blue.jpg'));

 index.php is in a root directory and there is a folder called images
 with the cool-blue.jpg background in there. The file size is only
 215kb.

 I'm not sure why it isn't working. Any help would be greatly
 appreciated.

[twitter-dev] Background Image URL always non-empty

[Justin Hart]

(was posted a while ago, but no replies)

If a background image is turned off by a user, its last value is still
shown in the api for the verifyCredentials and user/show actions.

For example, I get this:
  ...
  profile_background_image_url
  http://static.twitter.com/images/themes/theme1/bg.gif
  /profile_background_image_url
  ...

although I would expect to see something like this:
  ...
  profile_background_image_url/

or another field that says profile_background_image_showfalse/
profile_background_image_show

[twitter-dev] background image

[Christian Fazzini]

Hello all,

Im am currently making a website that uses the twitter api. I am able
to obtain the background image of my twitter profile using the url
http://twitter.com/users/show.xml?screen_name=screen_name_here

Which returns something like this:
http://static.twitter.com/images/themes/theme1/bg.gif

On my website, I am wondering if I should save this background image
onto my own database and loat it from my server or load it  directly
from the twitter website.

I am thinking that the 'friendliest' way is to save the image onto our
server and load it from there. This way, we dont have to use Twitter's
bandwidth everytime.

What are your opinions on this?
