Frequently Asked Questions
What avatar styles are available?▼
There are five styles: Initials (solid gradient background with your initials), Gradient (smooth radial gradient with a faint initials overlay), Identicon (a unique geometric pattern derived from your name — similar to GitHub's default avatars), Pixel Art (a colourful pixelated mosaic), and Rings (concentric colour rings with initials in the centre).
Will the same name always produce the same avatar?▼
Yes. The colours and patterns are generated deterministically from the text you enter using a hash function. The same name always produces the same avatar — great for consistent profile pictures across platforms.
Can I use this for profile pictures on social media?▼
Absolutely. Download the avatar at 512×512 for best quality. That resolution is suitable for LinkedIn, Twitter/X, GitHub, Slack, and most other platforms. All avatars are exported as lossless PNG files.
What does the Randomize button do?▼
It generates a random colour pair for the primary and secondary colours without changing your name. Use it if you want a different colour mood while keeping the same pattern or initials.
Are my details uploaded anywhere?▼
No. Everything — the text hashing, colour derivation, and canvas rendering — happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.
