  • Optionally display an image instead of the unique seal.
  • Manual configuration possible in javascript by disabling the auto-initialization and setting your own options. (See below.)

Simply include the script in your page and you're done.

<meta name="application-name" content="Example Title">
<meta name="description" content="Example description. More info: http://example.com">

    var signetOptions = {
        hue: 50 // Rotates the hue of the signet color bars by 50 (mod 256),
        title: 'Custom Example Title',
        description: 'Custom example description. More info: http://example.com'
