Reply here if you just want to see how your username looks like, so we avoid noise and keep that Show HN on the top. comments are really interesting



Or change document.querySelectorAll('.hnuser') at the beginning to document.querySelectorAll('.hnuser, #me') so it will also show up beside your name when logged in at the top.


Fire! Fire! Help me! 123 Cavendon Road. Looking forward to hearing from you. Yours truly, Maurice


I'll add that this will work on your profile as well - basically anywhere with an anchor to "news.ycombinator.com/user?id=blahblahblah"


Thanks. If you input the code multiple times it shows you a number of avatars equal to the number of times you input the code.


I am interested to see what my avatar looks like ;) edit: aha, squid!


I did something similar to this in Racket to generate unique filetype icons for unknown files. If you're careful with your defaults it can work really well.


Mine is like a sad face with a big weird nose


I guess you can probably make some personality (or mood) tests with them, as this is not, what I see in your avatar ...


Checking.. huh, looks very different from most other generated avatars.. almost inverted from the look most of them have.


I don't actually like my avatar very much, lol.

I can't decide whether it's a moustache and glasses or a bikini.


I see a bulldog with a flat top haircut (or old school phone) on it's head.


I'll take that over my moustache bikini :P

Thank you bird man.


I see DrDisrespect


So many comments on this thread.

edit: I AM THE CACTUS MAN


I like the idea, hope someone makes a userscript. Edit: my yellow avatar was a bit hard to see, though


Mysterious person in a hat and trench coat.

Perfect.


Wish I was smart enough to do this


I know I can modify the query, but I'm gonna join the train :) EDIT: A happy knight!


Mine seems to be a green… trident of some kind, maybe? I don’t even know what that is.


Let's see what I got

Edit: aha, helicopter


I hope mine's purple. Huh, it's a like a pale ceiling death laser.
