Usage:

Call the script this way:

echo '<img height="70px" width="70px" src="your/path/to/cat-avatar-generator?seed='.$var.'"/>';

(Note: for the seed, I advice to use author's name to not expose email or sensitive datas, even hashed on a public code.)

How to edit artworks

1. Open img/00_SRC.ora with Krita ( or Gimp,Mypaint,Pinta) Do your edit/draw/paint, respect layer naming, save.
2. Open it again in Gimp 2.8, with the export layer plugin
3. Scale the image down to the result you want (eg. 256px x 256px as on the demo ) LancZos filter
4. File > Export layer (Allow invisible layer to be exported, check 'image size', PNG file format )
5. Done.

All PNG files of 'parts' are extracted this way and keep their layer name.
