Build your own Octocat avatar, and share your creations on dev.to

I just wrote an introduction about GitHub's Octocat

I made this post because I wanted to brind some fun on dev.to by suggesting something.

Today, I found back https://myoctocat.com/ a site made to create you own Octocat avatar

I would like everyone to share their creations.

I freaking love this! Put this Octocat in a lineup with other Octocats and I think I could've picked this out as you! 🙌

Dawww, I'd be happy to share!

I couldn't figure out how to save mine, so I took a screenshot instead.

A screenshot of my Octocat. He has a fedora on with wayfarer sunglasses and piercings. He's a little hipster-looking cat, haha!

Here is mine

An illustration of a smiling cartoon character representing a young person. The character has large blue eyes, black hair styled in a bob cut, and is wearing a blue shirt with colorful stripes or embroidery designs on the front. They are holding a white mug that appears to have another small cartoon character on it. The character is wearing black pants and black and white sneakers
