Usage

Note: The smileys in a 24x24 canvas come in four diverent size variants - with the smiley circle with a diameter of 15px, 16px, 17px and 20px.

Let's generate some super-rare never-before-seen smileys / smilies:

require 'smileys'


smiley  = Smiley::Image.generate( "Yellow", "Face 1" )
smiley.save( "smiley1.png" )
smiley.zoom( 4 ).save( "[e-mail]" )

base = smiley

smiley = base.background( 'ukraine' )
smiley.save( "smiley1.1.png" )
smiley.zoom( 4 ).save( "[e-mail]" )

smiley = base.background( 'rainbow' )
smiley.save( "smiley1.2.png" )
smiley.zoom( 4 ).save( "[e-mail]" )


# no - no outline variant
smiley  = Smiley::Image.generate( "Yellow.No", "Face 1" )
smiley.save( "smiley1b.png" )
smiley.zoom( 4 ).save( "[e-mail]" )

# (re)try with eyes + mouth
smiley  = Smiley::Image.generate( "Yellow", "Open", "Smile" )
smiley.save( "smiley1c.png" )
smiley.zoom( 4 ).save( "[e-mail]" )

Voila!

4x:

smiley = Smiley::Image.generate( "Greener", "Face 2" )
smiley.save( "smiley2.png" )
smiley.zoom( 4 ).save( "[e-mail]" )

smiley = Smiley::Image.generate( "Greener.No", "Face 2" )
smiley.save( "smiley2b.png" )
smiley.zoom( 4 ).save( "[e-mail]" )

# (re)try with eyes + mouth
smiley  = Smiley::Image.generate( "Greener", "Shades", "Grin (Right)" )
smiley.save( "smiley2c.png" )
smiley.zoom( 4 ).save( "[e-mail]" )

Voila!

4x:

And so on.
