I’m not ready at the moment to implement this but before I forget I need to ask. Is it possible to grab twitter or gravatar images from other people’s profiles that will automatically update? I’m asking because soon I will have a “friends” section in my footer hopefully with their gravatar/twitter profile picture that automatically updates if they change it.

You can definitely grab their gravatar if you know the email address: http://en.gravatar.com/site/implement/hash/

I’m not sure on the twitter side, but I would think there’d be a pretty easy way to do it with the API. Gravatars are dead simple though, as long as you know the email address.

You’re awesome man, Thanks!

If anyone knows about the same for Twitter, let me know!
