This is a simple service that will return an identicon of an ethereum address. You can use this to power avatars in your webapp/dapp/web3 experience.

Think of effigy as a simple gravatar for ethereum.

FYI: 💸💸💸 Due to costs, I have disabled some features. It should render blockies for any ethereum address. If you have any issues, please let me know.

Also, I would love some donations to help cover costs: send usdc or eth to harper.eth. It was costing about 1k/month (wild!).

If you send me a note, I will give you a shoutout here. Thanks!

💸

Usage

To use the service you just need to use the url in an image like so:
