Something like http://congress.sunlightfoundation.com/legislators/memberid.png or etc ?

Or any other public website would be beneficial

Thanks

We provide photos with predictable filenames based on member ID. You can find a link to zip files for each size, here:

http://sunlightlabs.github.io/congress/#legislator-photos

We don't have a publicly hosted location, though, that's not a service we provide - you're encouraged to grab the zip file(s), drop them into S3 somewhere, and link to them there. It should be a low barrier to use, and keeps our hosting costs low.
