Mysterious link to the photo: who is in the photo?
Let's find out how to find a person “in contact” from the photo, if you were given a link.
Have you ever had such a situation that you were given a link to a VKontakte photo without telling whose photo it was? This link may look something like this: cs408919.vk.me/v408919891/9985/QTph90mekhY.jpg. If you are familiar with this situation, let's try together to determine the owner of your image.
In order to find out who is shown in the photo, we need to “pull out” some elements from the picture. Take the set of numbers that comes after the first slash. In our case, this is: 408919891. These characters are the user profile number. Now “pull out” the numbers located after the second slash (9985). This combination is the number of the album from which the image is taken.
Note! If you are given a link to the main profile photo, there will be no album number! If you were given a link to a picture from a group, you can only find out who is in the photo. You cannot identify the group and album!
Next, take the address Vk.com and add the profile number to it. It should look something like this: Vk.com/408919891.
To define an album, assign the word album, album number, underline and profile number to Vk.com. The result is the following combination: vk.com/ album9985_408919891.
