##About

StackImage is an image-generating service designed to create an image given a set of parameters. Currently, StackImage can generate an image that contains some of your profile information. The advantage over using the default [flair](http://stackapps.com/users/flair) is that StackImage can be embedded anywhere an image is allowed and there are lots of options for customizing the images. You can put them on blogs, forums, and bulletin boards. The images also stay up to date with your current score.

###The Easy Way:

The handy online tool:  
http://www.stackimage.quickmediasolutions.com/

<br>

###The Technical Way:

You can create a flair image by creating a URL that contains:

<pre>
[Required]
  id         - the desired user id
  site       - the desired SE site

[Optional]
  background - the color of the background
  border     - the color of the border
  text       - the color of the text
  title      - the color of the user's name
  font1      - the font to be used for the badges *
  font2      - the font to be used for the display name and rep *

* can be one of [mono,  monobold,  monobolditalic,  monoitalic,
                 sans,  sansbold,  sansbolditalic,  sansitalic,
                 serif, serifbold, serifbolditalic, serifitalic]
</pre>

For example, the URL for the Jon Skeet's flair pictured above *(line breaks inserted for clarity)*:

<pre>
http://stackimage.quickmediasolutions.com/flair.php
?id=22656
&site=stackoverflow
&border=777777
&background=000000
&text=ffffff
&title=ff8888
&font1=sans
&font2=sansbold
</pre>

This URL can then be used anywhere an image URL is expected. The site caches the images for 24 hours so that the processing load on the server is lessened.

**Note: Your feedback is appreciated!** Eventually I'd like to make a similar thing for questions.
