How do I get access to the user's Avatar?

Question

This might be a very basic question, but the words are so generic, that google is not helping me.

I want to access the picture of the user on a windows phone , which is the same picture provided in the "Me" Tile.

It doesn't seem to pop up in the PictureChooserTask.

How do I get that image, and does it have a url or can I only access the bitmap data?

Xbox Avatar image url's:

• Small head shot: http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/<gamertag>/avatarpic-s.png
• Large head shot: http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/<gamertag>/avatarpic-l.png
• Full body shot: http://avatar.xboxlive.com/avatar/<gamertag>/avatar-body.png

Here you can see them with my gamertag "Pedro Lamas":
