Creates an avatar image like the iOS7 Contacts.app for a given name

Install

pod 'GKContactImage'

Usage

You simple use the category method with a given name and the size of the image you want to create.

self.bigImageView.image = [UIImage imageForName:@"Georg Kitz" size:self.bigImageView.frame.size];

This would create the following image.

For a more customized image, use the extra category method with more options.

self.bigImageView.image = [UIImage imageForName:@"Georg Kitz" size:self.bigImageView.frame.size backgroundColor:[UIColor blackColor] textColor:[UIColor yellowColor] font:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:18.0]];
