Is it possible to get a larger square thumbnail from facebook?

This gets me a small square FB thumbnail: http://graph.facebook.com/5/picture?type=square

(UID example could be 5).

'd like a larger image (75 or 100px?) that is still cropped at the same points as the thumbnail. I know the param square can be large, but then it loses its crop positioning. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Now you can specify a custom width and height!

Example: https://graph.facebook.com/shaverm/picture?width=60&height=150

I was having a similar issue and went about solving it the hard way. This code will give you an imitation of a Facebook thumbnail in the largest possible size without losing resolution. Read more in the README.
