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?
