Normally, when you search for somebody on Facebook, the results are accompanied by a small profile picture. This photo serves as a visual check for you to see whether or not you are friending the right person and not somebody else by the same name.

Sometimes however, this photo is just WAY too small to distinguish any faces (this is particularly true when the profile picture is a group photo).

But did you know that you can make that photo bigger? Just copy the image location URL and then paste it into the address bar in your browser. Then, replace the ’s’ in the URL with an ‘n’ and hit enter. You’ll then be presented with a 200% larger version of that photo! Magic!
