.NET library for generating identicons. Running on .NET Core and other .NET Standard compatible platforms.

Update Asp.Net Mvc Html extensions to support Asp.Net Core

Or create a tag helper for asp.net core if the intention is to still keep compatibility with older versions of Asp.Net Mvc.

.Net Core 2.0 or .Net Standard 1.6

Any plans to implement a version for .Net core 2.0/.Net Standard 1.6?

Rendering artifacts on some shapes

Hi,
Great library! I realy like it and use it all over my app.
But I notice sometimes rendering artifacts that appear on some kinds of shapes. Here are samples (I hope github won't be compressing the image. click it to view full size):

Here is the code I use to generate images:

const int size = 128;
const int value = 0x5D503474; // the value below the samples in the pic above.
Identicon icon = Identicon.FromValue(value, size);
icon.Style.BackColor = Color.Transparent; // the darkgray background in samples is just a WPF window background.
icon.Style.Padding = 0f;

Then i just convert it to bitmap image to be able to display on window:

using (var stream = icon.SaveAsPng())
{
    var bitmapImage = new BitmapImage();
    bitmapImage.BeginInit();
    bitmapImage.CacheOption = BitmapCacheOption.OnLoad;
    bitmapImage.StreamSource = stream;
    bitmapImage.EndInit();
    bitmapImage.Freeze();
    return bitmapImage;
} 

Use in Blazor?

Does someone know how to use this in blazor wasm?

Ideally, to generate the image and insert it into the DOM, without an intermediate image file.

Depend on CoreCompat.System.Drawing instead of System.Drawing for .net core compatibility

Depending on Bitmap makes the Bitmap extension unavailable for .net core projects. Please consider replacing it with another alternative as seen here:

Generate avatar using initials

Similar to Microsoft Teams and TFS.
When user does not upload its avatar, the system generates one based on the user name, using their initials
