Bird Avatar Generator

(javascript version - All credits for idea and resources to David Revoy and its Bird Avatar Generator).

A generator of bird pictures optimized to generate either random avatars, or defined avatar from a "seed". A derivation, from another derivation by David Revoy from the original MonsterID by Andreas Gohr's.

The goal of this implementation is to have a server-less implementation of the generator, because you just don't need one.

To use it

• Just use the avatar.js script and img folder
• Call avatarGenerator(avatar, name) with avatar being either a canvas that will be drawn into, or anything and a canvas will be dropped into it (appendChild). name beeing a string to seed the avatar. If you want random, you can something like ${Math.random()}.
