JennyStudio Identicons Is a lightweight plug-in that generates Material Design-style avatars based on user names. It automatically replaces WordPress’s default “mystery man” avatars, BuddyPress user avatars, and bbPress forum avatars without relying on Gravatar.
Main functions: 
– Material Design Styles – Generates beautiful, consistent vector avatars. 
– Color configurable – Avatar colors are configurable. 
– Seamless integration – Compatible with WordPress Core, BuddyPress and bbPress. 
– Disable Gravatar – Avoid privacy issues and improve loading speed, especially for users in the mainland of China to avoid page jams caused by Gravatar loading. 
– Base64 inline image – Without additional HTTP requests, avatars are directly embedded in HTML.
