From stackoverflow.com/questions/2821061

"Simply fetch the data through this url: http://graph.facebook.com/sarfraz.anees/picture

Replace sarfraz.anees (my name) with name of the user you want to get the photo of. You can use the PHP's file_get_contents function to read that url and process the retrieved data.

Note: In php.ini, you need to make sure that openssl extension is enabled to use the file_get_contents function of PHP to read that url. "
