Custom font size (in px)	Custom font family	Provide a unique identifier with h. This is useful when you don't want two intials (different users?) hash to the same value.

• Easier to identify users
• Friendlier than a "No avatar" picture
• Background colors are always consistent
• Can use as a fallback picture for Gravatar (?default= flag) and other similar services

Do it!

Currently the service is hosted on Google App Engine which is not my first choice. If you can help with hosting, please reach out to me.
