title: How to find the max image size supported for contacts images?
body: <h2>background</h2>
  
  <p>starting with jelly bean (4.1), android now supports contact images that are <a href="http://developer.android.com/about/versions/jelly-bean.html#android-41" rel="nofollow">720x720</a> .</p>
  
  <p>before, starting with ICS (4.0), android has supported contact images that are <a href="http://developer.android.com/about/versions/android-4.0.html" rel="nofollow">256x256</a>.</p>
  
  <p>and before that, contact photos had just a size of a thumbnail - 96x96</p>
  
  <h2>the question</h2>
  
  <p>is there any function in the API that returns the max size of the contact image?</p>
  
  <p>i also hope that the manufacturers didn't change the max image sizes, and even if they did and we have such a function, it would return us the correct size.</p>
