Blockies
========

A tiny library for generating blocky identicons.

``javascript
var icon = blockies.create({ // All options are optional
seed: 'randstring', // seed used to generate icon data, default: random
color: '#dfe', // to manually specify the icon color, default: random
bgcolor: '#aaa', // choose a different background color, default: random
size: 15, // width/height of the icon in blocks, default: 8
scale: 3, // width/height of each block in pixels, default: 4
spotcolor: '#000' // each pixel has a 13% chance of being of a third color,
// default: random. Set to -1 to disable it. These "spots" create structures
// that look like eyes, mouths and noses.
});

document.body.appendChild(icon); // icon is a canvas element
`

In the above example the icon will be 15x15 blocks, and each block will be 3x3 pixels. The icon canvas will be 45x45 pixels.


Notes
-----

The defaults of size 8 and scale 4 generate 32x32 pixel icons. Below are some standard sizes that work well. A size larger than 10 will start generating more noisy icons that don't ressemble much.

* 24x24 {size: 8, scale: 3}
* 50x50 {size: 5, scale: 10}


Build
-----

node build
All this does is minify blockies.js to blockies.min.js`.
