Cat-Avatar-Generator : Plugin for PluXml 5.5 and 5.6

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

Artworks: PNG and ORA files licensed under: CC-By 4.0 attribution: David Revoy with the following exception: Generated cats used as Avatar (for blog,forum,social-network) don't need direct attribution and so, can be used as regular avatars without pasting David Revoy's name all over the place.

Code This PHP is licensed under the short and simple permissive: MIT License

Usage:

Call the original script this way (if you want to use it without PluXml):

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.)

For PluXml, you don't need to call img tag. Only modify, in your theme, the 'commentaires.php' file as follow:

<?php if(!defined('PLX_ROOT')) exit; ?>

	<?php if($plxShow->plxMotor->plxRecord_coms): ?>

		<h3 id="comments">
			<?php echo $plxShow->artNbCom(); ?>
		</h3>

		<?php while($plxShow->plxMotor->plxRecord_coms->loop()): # On boucle sur les commentaires ?>

		<div id="<?php $plxShow->comId(); ?>" class="<?php if (!isset($plxMotor->plxPlugins->aPlugins['catavatar'])) {echo 'comment ';}?><?php $plxShow->comLevel(); ?>">

			<div id="com-<?php $plxShow->comIndex(); ?>">

				<?php if (isset($plxMotor->plxPlugins->aPlugins['catavatar'])) {echo $plxShow->plxMotor->plxRecord_coms->f('catavatar'); }; ?>

// (...) the rest of the page is the same as original commentaires.php file

The important part of this code is the line:

<?php if (isset($plxMotor->plxPlugins->aPlugins['catavatar'])) {echo $plxShow->plxMotor->plxRecord_coms->f('catavatar'); }; ?>

How to edit artworks

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

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