Answer 1

If you need a larger image (default in miksii's example above is 50px x 50px which is pretty small), then use:

profileFields: ['id', 'displayName', 'name', 'gender', 'picture.type(large)']

and then

picture: profile.photos ? profile.photos[0].value : '/img/faces/unknown-user-pic.jpg'

This will return a 200px x 200px profile picture for that user.
