# Avatar

Avatar is a visual representation of a user, company, or entity.

## Import

```tsx
import { Avatar } from '@coinbase/cds-web/media/Avatar'
```

## Examples

### Basic Example

```jsx live
<VStack gap={2}>
  <HStack gap={2} alignItems="center">
    <Avatar src={assets.btc.imageUrl} />
  </HStack>
</VStack>
```

### Sizes

Avatar comes in six different sizes. The default size is `l`.

```jsx live
<VStack gap={2}>
  <HStack gap={2} alignItems="center">
    <Avatar src={assets.btc.imageUrl} size="s" />
    <Avatar src={assets.btc.imageUrl} size="m" />
    <Avatar src={assets.btc.imageUrl} size="l" />
    <Avatar src={assets.btc.imageUrl} size="xl" />
    <Avatar src={assets.btc.imageUrl} size="xxl" />
    <Avatar src={assets.btc.imageUrl} size="xxxl" />
  </HStack>
</VStack>
```

### Shapes

Avatar supports three different shapes: `circle`, `square`, and `hexagon`. The default shape is `circle`.

```jsx live
<HStack gap={2} alignItems="center">
  <Avatar name="Alice" colorScheme="blue" size="xl" shape="circle" />
  <Avatar name="Bob" colorScheme="purple" size="xl" shape="square" />
  <Avatar name="Charlie" colorScheme="green" size="xl" shape="hexagon" />
</HStack>
```

### Selected State

Avatars can show a selected state with a border indicator.

```jsx live
<HStack gap={2}>
  <Avatar name="Alice" colorScheme="blue" size="xl" />
  <Avatar name="Alice" colorScheme="blue" size="xl" selected />
  <Avatar name="Bob" colorScheme="purple" size="xl" shape="square" />
  <Avatar name="Bob" colorScheme="purple" size="xl" shape="square" selected />
</HStack>
```

### Fallback Image

If you do not provide a src or if the provided src does not resolve, Avatar will surface a placeholder image.

```jsx live
<HStack gap={2} alignItems="center">
  <Avatar />
  <Avatar selected />
</HStack>
```

### Fallback with Colors

We've created a palette of identity colors using our CDS spectrum colors. When used as fallback, these colors will generate based on the provided name.

```jsx live
<VStack gap={2}>
  <HStack gap={2} alignItems="center">
    <Avatar name="Alice" colorScheme="blue" size="xl" />
    <Avatar name="Bob" colorScheme="purple" size="xl" />
    <Avatar name="Charlie" colorScheme="green" size="xl" />
    <Avatar name="Diana" colorScheme="teal" size="xl" />
    <Avatar name="Eve" colorScheme="pink" size="xl" />
    <Avatar name="Frank" colorScheme="gray" size="xl" />
  </HStack>
  <HStack gap={2} alignItems="center">
    <Avatar name="Alice" colorScheme="blue" size="xl" selected />
    <Avatar name="Bob" colorScheme="purple" size="xl" selected />
    <Avatar name="Charlie" colorScheme="green" size="xl" selected />
    <Avatar name="Diana" colorScheme="teal" size="xl" selected />
    <Avatar name="Eve" colorScheme="pink" size="xl" selected />
    <Avatar name="Frank" colorScheme="gray" size="xl" selected />
  </HStack>
</VStack>
```
