img_gen is a small helper module used to create square PNG images programmatically.
The main function in img_gen is MakeImage. You provide it with a painting function that takes x, y coordinates in the range [-1, +1], and it automatically creates an anti-aliased image for you in the current working directory. As an example, the code
def pfHello(x, y):
return (255, 0, 0, 255) if x > y else (0, 255, 0, 255)
img_gen.MakeImage(pfHello, "hello")generates the following image:
