CSS avatars\n\nMinimalistic avatars based on css. Color + letter = visual identification.\n\n![Avatar letter C](docs/avatar-letter-c.png)\n\nPossible combinations: `216` colors * `26` letters * `2` versions (default, inverted): `11232`\n\n## Installation\n\nThe easiest way is using [bower][]:\n\n```\nbower install css-avatars\n```\n\nOther options:\n\n- Download the [latest release][].\n- Clone the repo:`git clone https://github.com/rmhdev/css-avatars.git`\n\n## How to use\n\n```\n\u003ci class=\"avatar avatar-color-95 avatar-letter-c\"\u003e\u003c/i\u003e\n```\n\n- `avatar`: base class\n- `avatar-color-*`: color number, from `0` to `215`. Read more about [web-safe colors][]\n- `avatar-letter-*`: (optional) letter, from `a` to `z`\n- `avatar-*`: (optional) size: `sm`, `md`, `lg`\n- `avatar-inverse`: (optional) inverted colors\n- `avatar-plain`: (optional) remove text shadow\n\nYou can also create avatars with special letters.\nJust don't use the `avatar-letter-*` class and write the letter in the tag.\n\n```\n\u003ci class=\"avatar avatar-color-201\"\u003eü\u003c/i\u003e\n```\n\n## Examples\n\nView an [online demo][]. There's also a [raw demo][] with all the colors and sizes.\n\n![Avatar examples](docs/avatars-example.jpg)\n\n## Do it yourself\n\nCreating your customized CSS avatars is easy. You'll need [npm][], the `nodejs` package manager; check it before continuing.\n\nClone the repo:\n\n```\ngit clone https://github.com/rmhdev/css-avatars.git\n```\n\nInstall the dependencies:\n\n```\ncd css-avatars\nnpm install\n```\n\nThat's it! Now edit the `less/css-avatars.less` and then run one of the following [grunt][] tasks:\n\n* `grunt less-compile`: compiles the `less` file, creating the default `css` version.\n* `grunt dist-css`: generates the `css` files (default and minified versions).\n* `grunt compile`: compresses the `css` folder in a `zip`.\n* `grunt`: this task will watch for changes in the `less` source, compiling it and generating the `css` file automatically.\n\n## Code\n\nI started this project with some goals in mind:\n\n- Play with [Less][]\n- Learn more about CSS + fonts.\n\n## Change log\n\n* `0.0.1` (May 18, 2014): initial release.\n* `0.1.0` (May 18, 2014): added inverse mode.\n* `0.2.0` (May 18, 2014): letter class is optional (for adding special characters).\n* `0.3.0` (May 25, 2014): add text shadow (enhance readability). Files with consistent naming.\n* `0.4.0` (Jul 8, 2015): increase font size. Add bower support.\n\n## Copyright and license\n\nCode and documentation copyright 2015 Rober Martín.\nCode released under [MIT license](LICENSE).\nDocs released under [Creative Commons CC BY 4.0][].\n\nThis project is inspired in default avatars used in Google's Gmail Android App.\nCSS is based on [Glyphicons][] (awesome project!).\nI started working on this project after reading [Switch from Gravatar to HTML/CSS letters for no-avatar users][].\n\n## Author\n\nMy name is [Rober Martín][] ([@rmhdev][]).
