• background and foreground: tinygraphs.com/squares/hello?bg=ff4008&fg=04d6f2

  You can specify the color of the background or foreground by using parameters bg and fg and passing an hexadecimal value of the color:

• theme: tinygraphs.com/labs/squares/random?theme=frogideas

  You can specify the theme you want to take into account in the image.

  

  Here is the list of existing themes:

  • base
  • sugarsweets
  • heatwave
  • daisygarden
  • seascape

  • berrypie

• numcolors: tinygraphs.com/labs/squares/random?theme=summerwarmth&numcolors=4

  You can specify the number of colors that you want to render the image. Default value is 2 and can be extended to 4.

  

• inv: tinygraphs.com/squares/hello?theme=frogideas&numcolors=2&inv=1

  You can specify if you want to see the colors inverted. Default value is false. inv parameter works with theme colors or default (black and white) colors. The number of colors has to be equal to 2.

  

• order: tinygraphs.com/squares/hello?theme=frogideas&numcolors=4&order=3&order=2&order=1&order=0

  You can specify the order in which you want to see the colors by using the order parameter. Just add the indexes in which you wish to see the colors to the order array (indexes are zero based) Like so: order=3&order=2&order=1&order=0

  

• lines: tinygraphs.com/isogrids/hello?lines=4

You can specify the number of lines that an isogrid can have using the linesparameter. Default parameter is 6. Value has to be greater or equal to 4.

• colors:

tinygraphs.com/isogrids/hello?lines=4&colors=43e0e8&colors=e84b43 You can specify use you own colors by using the colors parameter and passing hexa colors.

• isogrid color gradient parameters

  You can manipulate the gradient vector using the following parameter.

  • gx1: first gradient coordinate along x axis.
  • gy1: first gradient coordinate along y axis.
  • gx2: second gradient coordinate along x axis.
  • gy2: second gradient coordinate along y axis.
