Generating A Graphical Representation Of A User
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, at a layering module, a request for an online graphical representation of a user, the request comprising indicia of a first asset and a second asset, the first asset and the second asset collectively providing an online graphical representation of the user;
retrieving, with the layering module, a first file associated with the first asset and a second file associated with the second asset from an asset repository based on the indicia, the asset repository storing a plurality of files associated with assets including the first file and the second file; and
compositing, with the layering module, the first and second file to form a first image being the online graphical representation of the user.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus are described for generating an online graphical representation of a user. For example, a method includes receiving, at a layering module, a request for an online graphical representation of a user, the request comprising indicia of a first asset and a second asset, the first asset and the second asset collectively providing an online graphical representation of the user; retrieving, with the layering module, a first file associated with the first asset and a second file associated with the second asset from an asset repository based on the indicia, the asset repository storing a plurality of files associated with assets including the first file and the second file; and compositing, with the layering module, the first and second file to form a first image being the online graphical representation of the user.

8. A computer program product, tangibly embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, including instructions being operable to cause one or more data processing apparatus to:
-
receive, at a layering module, a request for an online graphical representation of a user, the request comprising indicia of a first asset and a second asset, the first asset and the second asset collectively providing an online graphical representation of the user; retrieve, with the layering module, a first file associated with the first asset and a second file associated with the second asset from an asset repository based on the indicia, the asset repository storing a plurality of files associated with assets including the first file and the second file; and composite, with the layering module, the first and second file to form a first image being the online graphical representation of the user. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A system comprising:
-
a layering module configured to receive a request for an online graphical representation of a user, the request comprising indicia of a first asset and a second asset, the first asset and the second asset collectively providing an online graphical representation of the user; an asset repository storing a plurality of files associated with assets including a first file associated with the first asset and a second file associated with a second asset, the layering module further configured to retrieve the first file and the second file from the asset repository based on the indicia, the layering module further configured to composite the first and second file to form a first image being the online graphical representation of the user. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

19. A computer-implemented method of generating a document defining a webpage that contains an online graphical representation of a user comprising:
-
retrieving, with a web server, a first asset identifier and a second asset identifier from a profile service module, the profile service module storing in a user profile the first asset identifier associated with a first asset and the second asset identifier associated with a second asset; generating a reference to the online graphical representation, the reference comprising the first asset identifier and the second asset identifier, the reference formatted to cause one or more data processing apparatus to composite a first image file associated with the first asset identifier and a second image file associated with the second asset identifier forming a first image being the online graphical representation of the user; and adding the reference to the document. - View Dependent Claims (20)
