Question

I'm looking for a PHP library/function/class which can create Identicons.

Answer 1

how about this

it's how Scott did the identicons for Wordpress, you can download the code and see for yourself.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

PHPClasses didn't have anything - but you could have a look at this MonsterID implementation.

Answer 3

i use this:

class Gravatar
{
    static public function GetGravatarUrl( $email, $size = 128, $type = 'identicon', $rating = 'pg' )
    {
        $gravatar = sprintf( 'http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/%s?d=%s&s=%d&r=%s',
                              md5( $email ), $type, $size, $rating );
        return $gravatar;
    }
}

Which is basically the same thing SO uses. It supports everything gravatar.com supports.

Answer 4

Sourceforge has a PHP identicon implementation

Answer 5

Mmm, I wondered why you asked, since you link to Wikipedia article which points to lot of implementations, including PHP ones. BTW, thanks for your question, I didn't know the name of these icons...

But after exploring a bit, I found lot of links there were outdated... Following the Visiglyphs one, the original code is no longer available, but the author points to an alternative, OO version which can be downloaded. :-)

Note that author also wrote an interesting complement article: How to create a Visiglyph cache .
