Avatar Customization
19 Dec 202210 minutes to read
Colour customization
The avatar comes with default background colour (grey). This can be easily customized to desired colour by adding custom class or directly selecting the avatar class from the CSS.
<div id='element'>
<span class="e-avatar e-avatar-xlarge e-avatar-circle green">AJ</span>
<span class="e-avatar e-avatar-xlarge e-avatar-circle violet">JK</span>
<span class="e-avatar e-avatar-xlarge e-avatar-circle rose">EL</span>
<span class="e-avatar e-avatar-xlarge e-avatar-circle blue">SR</span>
<span class="e-avatar e-avatar-xlarge e-avatar-circle red">PD</span>
</div>
<style>
#element {
display: flex;
width: 400px;
margin: 100px auto;
border-radius: 3px;
justify-content: center;
}
.e-avatar {
margin: 2px;
}
.e-avatar.green {
background-color: #87eb87;
}
.e-avatar.violet {
background-color: #ee82ee;
}
.e-avatar.blue {
background-color: #7171e4;
}
.e-avatar.red {
background-color: #d86e6e;
}
.e-avatar.rose {
background-color: #bc8f8f;
}
</style>
Customize avatar sizes
Even though the avatar comes with five predefined sizes, sometimes it’s not enough. So, the avatar is designed in such a way that the width and height will be relative to font-size. By changing the font-size of the avatar element, you can change the width and height automatically.
<div id='element'>
<span class="e-avatar">26px</span>
<span class="e-avatar">24px</span>
<span class="e-avatar">22px</span>
<span class="e-avatar">20px</span>
<span class="e-avatar">18px</span>
</div>
<style>
#element {
display: block;
width: 400px;
margin: 100px auto;
border-radius: 3px;
}
#element :nth-child(5) {
font-size: 18px;
}
#element :nth-child(4) {
font-size: 20px;
}
#element :nth-child(3) {
font-size: 22px;
}
#element :nth-child(2) {
font-size: 24px;
}
#element :nth-child(1) {
font-size: 26px;
}
</style>
NOTE
Use various media in avatar
Avatars can be used with a wide variety of media formats like SVG, font-icons, images, letters, words, etc.
