Ah, sorry guys.<p>A little late disclaimer. I didn&#x27;t create this project.<p>All the credit goes to Xuan Tang.<p>- <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;txstc55.github.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;txstc55.github.io&#x2F;</a><p>- <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;user?id=txstc55">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;user?id=txstc55</a>

Fantastic, but unfortunately the source code is minified: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;txstc55&#x2F;ugly-avatar">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;txstc55&#x2F;ugly-avatar</a>, making it difficult to see how it was done and learn from or contribute to the project.

This reminds me of the only NFT collection I have ever liked: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.stargaze.zone&#x2F;m&#x2F;stars19jq6mj84cnt9p7sagjxqf8hxtczwc8wlpuwe4sh62w45aheseues57n420&#x2F;tokens" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.stargaze.zone&#x2F;m&#x2F;stars19jq6mj84cnt9p7sagjxqf8hxtc...</a>

Looks like the animation style of the cartoon &quot;Home Movies&quot; - seriously underrated show. Jon H Benjamin is the voice of the main character.

Ah this is awesome! I really like how you handled the hair in these.<p>I made something similar a few years back, pulling from a suite of random textures. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;holinaty.com&#x2F;randomfaces&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;holinaty.com&#x2F;randomfaces&#x2F;</a>

Ha! This is basically why I bought uglyavatar.com a couple of years ago. I was taken aback when I saw this on HN. Maybe I should do something with it one day...

Nice project. Would be good to add a bit more diversity to the skin tones though :)

That&#x27;s cool. Hacks into our ability to recognize faces, without requiring real faces. A forum, where these avatars are randomly generated per thread would be cool. Kind of like &#x2F;pol&#x2F; thread ids, but easier recognize.

Is it possible to have a gravatar-like interface, where I get a fixed image?

I love this. Should be hosted on thisavataristoouglytoexist.com though.

What are some of the best libraries that would generate an avatar in PHP directly?<p>Or in Javascript?<p>I don&#x27;t want to have to hit any APIs.

Great, and I think I&#x27;ve seen something similar like this style.

See also the duck generator, by the same creator: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;txstc55.github.io&#x2F;duck-duck-duck&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;txstc55.github.io&#x2F;duck-duck-duck&#x2F;</a>
