raw profile_photo_url url

In my app I am displaying the remote user avatar from various services. I would like to do the same with Dropbox however the URL returned for profile_photo_url using get_current_account is not a raw image but wrapped in html.

 

How do I access the raw image only?

    Thanks for the report! I'm not seeing the same behavior though. When I access the returned profile_photo_url, I'm just getting a image/jpeg response back.

    Can you share a sample of what you're getting? Thanks in advance!
