v0.4.3

Fixed:

• Add missing xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" attribute. Thanks @samuelpismel

Shrink ray!

Fixed:

• Now only files in the lib/ folder are used when building the gem and files like the demo.png are not. This reduces the size of the gem by 90% 🙈

No name? No problem.

Fixed

• Instead of raising an error, it now shows a question mark on grey background when provided with an empty name.

Shape up!

New

• Adds an option to define the number of different background colors and makes sure that successive name values (A, B, C, ...) result in successive colors, with colors evenly distributed around the color (hue) wheel, resulting in a nice color palette.
• Adds an option to set the shape of the initials background. Use :rect or the default :circle.

v0.3.0

New

• Now uses a system font stack which should pick a better font than a plain non-serif alone.
• Adds an option to limit the initials length, so if you want all your avatars to only have a single letter, you can now set a limit of 1.
