Generative avatar/icon design for accounts and tokens
@aulneau to chime in here on technical constraints.
For a user an avatar or icon is helpful in differentiating between accounts and tokens. Each of these will have a unique address, and we can use these addresses to generate a visual that is unique as well. We can use shapes, colors (+gradients) and type. Keep in mind that these will generally be pretty small, around 36x36 px.
I'd like to propose the following guiding principles:
- They should be easy to differentiate
- They should be easy to remember
- They should be on brand
We currently use gradients for this, its colors constrained by a HSL range, with an optional letter that represents the first letter of the token.
@eugeniadigon is this an initiative you're actively working on atm?

This is one of the last to-dos I have going around for product but it takes a bit more research in order to produce. I know to some degree we all want this to be improved but it keeps getting deprioritised. Maybe let's seriously discuss it on the next review?
