An insanely fast and simple Minecraft avatar API
Just send us a Username or UUID. The UUID can either be plain or dashed (though we will redirect to plain).
Usernames may be deprecated in the future and are more susceptible to rate limits.
Replace user with the Username/UUID in the below examples
For basic usage, provide a username or UUID in the user field:
https://minotar.net/avatar/user
You can also set a size. We use pixels and only need the width. Just add it to the end.
https://minotar.net/avatar/user/100
And because some services require an extension, we've added simple support for it. Just add .png to the end.
