## Parameters:
* **size**: `tinygraphs.com/squares/hello?size=60`
* **formats**: `tinygraphs.com/squares/hello?fmt=svg`
The default format is `SVG`.
All routes support SVG format, except `Square` routes who also support JPEG.
* **background and foreground**: `tinygraphs.com/squares/hello?bg=ff4008&fg=04d6f2`
You can specify the color of the background or foreground by using parameters `bg` and `fg` and passing an hexadecimal value of the color:
* **theme**: `tinygraphs.com/labs/squares/random?theme=frogideas`
You can specify the theme you want to take into account in the image.
Here is the list of existing themes:
*  base
*  sugarsweets
*  heatwave
* daisygarden
*  seascape
*  summerwarmth
*  bythepool
*  duskfalling
*  frogideas
*  berrypie
* **numcolors**: `tinygraphs.com/labs/squares/random?theme=summerwarmth&numcolors=4`
You can specify the number of colors that you want to render the image.
Default value is **2** and can be extended to **4**.
  
* **inv**:
`tinygraphs.com/squares/hello?theme=frogideas&numcolors=2&inv=1`
You can specify if you want to see the colors inverted.
Default value is **false**. `inv` parameter works with theme colors or default (black and white) colors. The number of colors has to be equal to **2**.
 
* **order**:
`tinygraphs.com/squares/hello?theme=frogideas&numcolors=4&order=3&order=2&order=1&order=0`
You can specify the order in which you want to see the colors by using the `order` parameter. Just add the indexes in which you wish to see the colors to the order array (indexes are zero based)
Like so: `order=3&order=2&order=1&order=0`
* **lines**:
`tinygraphs.com/isogrids/hello?lines=4`
You can specify the number of lines that an isogrid can have using the `lines`parameter. **Default** parameter is **6**. Value has to be greater or equal to 4.
* **colors**:
`tinygraphs.com/isogrids/hello?lines=4&colors=43e0e8&colors=e84b43`
You can specify use you own colors by using the `colors` parameter and passing hexa colors.
* **banner parameters:**
* `h`: height parameter.
* `w`: width parameter.
* `xt`: number of triangles in `isogrid` banner in x axis.
* `xs`: number of squares in `squares` banner in x axis.
* `theme`: tinygraphs theme to use in banner.
* `numcolors`: number of colors to take into account when rendering banner.
`tinygraphs.com/isogrids/banner/random/gradient?theme=bythepool&numcolors=4`
* **random banner parameters:**
* `p`: probability of the main color in the banner. Default value is `0.5`. Values should be between `0` and `1`
`tinygraphs.com/labs/isogrids/banner/gradient?theme=bythepool&p=0.1`
* **isogrid color gradient parameters**
You can manipulate the gradient vector using the following parameter.
* `gx1`: first gradient coordinate along x axis.
* `gy1`: first gradient coordinate along y axis.
* `gx2`: second gradient coordinate along x axis.
* `gy2`: second gradient coordinate along y axis.
`tinygraphs.com/labs/isogrids/banner/gradient?theme=bythepool&xt=4&h=120&w=120&gx1=0&gy1=0&gy2=60&gx2=60`
