You know when on someone’s profile you see ‘View Photos of X (405)’ and you click to see them all and you can only see something like 340? Well there’s a way to see at least a few of those hidden pictures.

Get their facebook ID and go to: http://www.facebook.com/photos.php?subj=[Facebook ID]

You’ll now see a page that shows all the albums they’re tagged in. Unfortunately the photos that are in private albums are not clickable, but you can still enlarge that one thumbnail of that album. The filename of the thumbnail is something like: aXXXXXXXX_XXXXXX_XXXX.jpg and to access the fullsize image you just got to copy and paste that url into your address bar and change that little ‘a’ to an ‘n’.

This will only work on public profiles in your networks and it will not allow you to see every picture of them as they may have more than one picture in those private albums and you can only see one in the thumbnail

i seriously doubt facebook would fix this so go ahead and use it for however long you want

NOTE: I’m currently in the process of writing a greasemonkey script for the previously-announced hack and it should be finished soon :)

    the ID is in the URL of their profile page where it says “id=1234567″

    whenever you go the the location of the picture, it gives you “aXXXXXXXX_XXXXXX_XXXX.jpg”

    is there anyway to manipulate the last four digits, the ones that signify the specific photo, in order to find other photos in the album?

    It just redirects me to the facebook home page, does this mean that they fixed it?

    I believe the http://www.facebook.com/photos.php?subj=Facebook ID] trick no long works, I used it for awhile and recently it gives me the “This content is currently unavailable

    The page you requested cannot be displayed right now. It may be temporarily unavailable, the link you clicked on may have expired, or you may not have permission to view this page. ” error page…same as when you click on an album that is private but it does this automatically…any ideas? If you can figure this out it’d be greatly appreciated!

    that sucks they fixed it. anyone have any ideas? i think there should be a fuskering program for facebook. haha

  1. Now you can view any private profile through a loop hole in the share button with the Facebook Private Profile Viewer

    BEWARE OF SPAMMERS AND SCAMMERS. “Jessica Duke” (who puts a real-sounding name anyway?) just wants you to sign up to his/her scam site. No such trick exists, and if it did, we wouldn’t find it in a public site.

  2. sir,

    i am trying to see the pics and see the profile and friends. and nothing is working. if you have any idea.
    please let me know.. thank you for your all information in website..

    Is there a way to see tagged photos of a friend who has disallowed that option in their privacy settings?
    I’ve seen some of their tagged photos around in other friends’ albums, so I’m sure there must be a way to access them on one page? Err so frustrating!

    It does work for me, but is there a way to track who view that page? Like can the person whose id I viewed see that I was creeping on their photos?
