But trying to get the user profile throw an error. So I want to use the Rest Api and just get the info my self.

I am the developer of Tweetinvi which is a library similar to Tweetsharp but that is maintained and up to date.

You can get a user profile using the following code :

TwitterCredentials.SetCredentials("Access_Token", "Access_Token_Secret", "Consumer_Key", "Consumer_Secret");
var user =  User.GetUserFromScreenName("<username>");

I hope this can help you with your code.

Cheers, Linvi
