geometric-banner
Make geometric banner images, e.g. for a LinkedIn profile banner.
According to LinkedIn, the optimal size for a profile banner is 1128 by 191 pixels. According to me, the best shape is the hexagon.
Sample results
Usage
Run it without installing anything, using uv:
uvx geometric-banner
Or install it as a tool so geometric-banner is always on your PATH:
uv tool install geometric-banner
geometric-banner
(pip install geometric-banner works too.) Either way, the command writes
geometric_banner.svg and geometric_banner.png to the current directory.
Everything is optional; the defaults produce a LinkedIn-sized hexagon banner colored
by a Gaussian process in viridis. Pass --seed to make a result reproducible — with the
same installed versions of numpy and scikit-learn, that is; the Gaussian process sampler
goes through floating-point linear algebra, so upgrading those can shift the result slightly.
geometric-banner --shape triangle --colormap magma --seed 42
| Option | Values | Default |
|---|---|---|
--shape |

--seed |

--padding-factor |
center-to-center spacing as a multiple of scale; below 1 the shapes overlap |
1.1 |
--width, --height |
canvas size in pixels | 1128, 191 |
geometric-banner --help lists the same options.
