You've Got Profile Icons
Every visitor gets a unique colorful avatar - no account required.
Starting today, every visitor to Qaya gets their own unique profile icon.
How It Works
When you first visit, we generate a random ID and store it in your browser. That ID seeds a procedural generator that creates your personal identicon - a small circular image made of overlapping organic shapes in vivid colors.
The same ID always produces the same image. Return tomorrow, next week, or next month - your icon stays consistent. Clear your browser data? You get a fresh identity and a fresh look.
Design Choices
We wanted something distinctive:
- Curved, not blocky - Smooth blobs, circles, ellipses, and arc strokes instead of pixel grids
- Non-symmetric - Every shape is positioned independently, so no two icons look mirrored
- Vivid - Neon-bright colors on a dark background that pop at any size
Header Reorganization
We also split the settings menu into two buttons:
| Profile (your icon) | Page Actions (⋮) |
|---|---|
| Theme, Units, Currency | View toggles, Columns |
| Your preferences | Share, Feedback |
The mental model: "about me" goes under your profile icon, "about this page" goes under the kebab.
Try It
Look at the top-right corner - that colorful circle is you now. Hover over it to see your truncated ID, or click to access your preferences.
Technical note: The generator uses a 128-bit hash (cyrb128) and seeded PRNG (sfc32) to produce deterministic SVG output. Zero external dependencies, ~120 lines of vanilla JavaScript.
