Feature Request: Add new style for social: `?style=social`
Feature Request
| Q | A |
|---|---|
| New Feature | yes |
| RFC | yes |
| BC Break | unknown |
Summary
You currently have these styles, and they are very useful:
| style | demo |
|---|---|
flat |
 |
flat-square |
 |
plastic |
 |
for-the-badge |
 |
However, shields.io has one other style available: social. See more info here.
For example:
| style | demo |
|---|---|
flat |
 |
flat-square |
 |
plastic |
 |
for-the-badge |
 |
social |
 |
But when I try to use this for Profile Views:
Can you please also add this ?style=social function to your repo?

Thank you!
Hi @chrimaho you suggest to add a simple social badge without octocat or with octocat? I'm asking this because this library is agnostic to external context such as the github logo. It is meant to be fully configurable on content and colors, adding the github logo by default would imply a coupling. Do not you think?
@chrimaho I recommend you to remove the rendered counter from the message. Otherwise your profile view increments on thread open and on each page refresh ))
My above example is just one example.
Here are some more examples:

@JellyBellyDev , I would like to, but I'm afraid I don't know which part of your repo would need to be changed to facilitate this new feature. I'm not very experienced in the php language.
@chrimaho ok, no problem! I'll try it as soon as I have some time! ;)
