Facebook Graph API : get larger pictures in one request

Question

I'm currently using the Graph API Explorer to make some tests. That's a good tool.

I want to get the user's friend list, with friends' names, ids and pictures. So I type :

https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends?fields=id,picture,name 

But picture is only 50x50, and I would like a larger one in this request.

Is it possible ?

As described in this bug on Facebook, you can also request specific image sizes now via the new API "field expansion" syntax.

Like so:

https://graph.facebook.com/____OBJECT_ID____?fields=picture.type(large)
