Extremely simple avatars


For basic usage just provide an identifier - UUID, username or a Minecraft texture ID:
https://mc-heads.net/avatar/identifier
For size control, add the desired size in pixels after specifying the username:
https://mc-heads.net/avatar/identifier/100
For avatars without the helm element, add /nohelm to the end of any URL:
https://mc-heads.net/avatar/identifier/100/nohelm
And for a URL with a file extension, you can add a .png at the very end of any URL:
https://mc-heads.net/avatar/identifier/100/nohelm.png

8px up to 600px

MHF UUIDs

Mojang has created several accounts with guaranteed static skins to help map makers visualize their creations with said account's heads.
This endpoint attempts to list all of the known and verified MHF UUIDs and their names.

About Caching

MCHeads caches skins on its servers for 24 hours
Images are also cached in your browser for 2 hours.
In addition, CloudFlare may cache images as long as your browser would.


About Usernames

We strongly advise you to use UUIDs instead of usernames! UUIDs never change while usernames do.

Malformed usernames are rejected.


About UUIDs

UUIDs may be any valid Mojang UUID in the blank or dashed format.
Malformed UUIDs are rejected, and all features on MCHeads support UUIDs


CORS

MCHeads supports Cross-Origin Resource Sharing, so you can make AJAX request from other sites!


HTTP/2

MCHeads supports HTTP/2, meaning a client can re-use a single underlying TCP connection to make multiple requests instead of opening a new connection for each one, making the whole process up to 50% faster!
If you are using one of the JSON or avatar endpoints of MCHeads, using HTTP/2 could heavily increase performance in your app.
