}DESCRIPTION
Fetches a pavatar image from a given URL and gives it to you in the sizes you specify. Uses LWPx::ParanoidAgent to protect your servers from attacks.
This module fully conforms to Pavatar spec 0.3.0 (http://pavatar.com/spec/pavatar-0.3.0), which is the latest one on Apr 25th, 2007.
METHODS
my ($hashref, $type) = Net::Pavatar->fetch( $url, \%opts )
Returns a hashref and a string, as a 2-list. The hash contains the image sizes as keys, and the image data for each size as values. The string contains the image type and can either be 'jpeg', 'png' or 'gif'. If a pavatar does not exist, or is not valid for any reason, returns null.
The \%opts hashref is optional, and accepts the following keys:
size : the sizes that you want the pavatar image returned in - defaults to 80
timeout : the total time that UserAgent is allowed to retrieve each page or image - defaults to 15
e.g. Net::Pavatar->fetch( $url, { size => [32, 48], timeout => 25 } )
