Logo

The logos are embedded bitmap images inside QR codes that contain a URL to the website.

How to make embedded images in QR codes

  • Using GIMP, create a black/white/transparent pixel graphic of the image you want to embed (01_pixel_*.xcf)
  • Export the graphic to a gif (02_pixel_*.gif)
  • Using qr-vanity, generate QR codes for "https://vax.codes" with the image embedded in it
    • sudo apt install git python3-dev python3-setuptools python3-pip libzbar0 libzbar-dev
    • virtualenv -p python3.7 venv
    • source venv/bin/activate
    • git clone https://github.com/mzollin/qr-vanity.git
    • cd qr-vanity
    • pip3 install -r requirements.txt
    • ./qrvanity.py /path/to/pixel_vax-codes.gif "https://vax.codes" (will generate possible QR code png images)
  • Select whichever output image you think looks best (03_output_*.png)
  • Optimize via pngcrush.com (04_qr_*.png)
