A Jekyll plugin for rendering GitHub avatars. Jekyll Avatar makes it easy to add GitHub avatars to your Jekyll site by specifying a username. If performance is a concern, Jekyll Avatar is deeply integrated with the GitHub avatar API, ensuring avatars are cached and load in parallel. It even automatically upgrades users to Retina images, when supported.
Features
- Lazy loading images
- Use with GitHub Enterprise
- Pass the username as a variable
- You can customize the size of the resulting avatar
- If you are using a Jekyll version less than 3.5.0, use the gems key instead of plugins
