profile_picture_django_social_auth

# This is models.py for a new user profile that you would like to create.

"""
this gist gets an id from django-social-auth and based on that saves the photo from social networks into your model. This is one of the best ways to extend User model because this way, you don't need to redefine a CustomUser as explained in the doc for django-social-auth. this is a new implementation based on https://gist.github.com/1248728
