# Avatar

An image with a fallback for representing the user.

```tsx
import { Avatar } from '@skeletonlabs/skeleton-react';

export default function Default() {
	return (
		<Avatar>
			<Avatar.Image src="https://i.pravatar.cc/150?img=48" />
			<Avatar.Fallback>SK</Avatar.Fallback>
		</Avatar>
	);
}

```

## Fallback

Use `<Avatar.Fallback>` to provide initials, icons, or a framework-specific image component.

```tsx
import { Avatar } from '@skeletonlabs/skeleton-react';

export default function Fallback() {
	return (
		<Avatar>
			<Avatar.Fallback>SK</Avatar.Fallback>
		</Avatar>
	);
}

```

## Filter

Avatars can implement [SVG Filters](/docs/guides/cookbook/svg-filters) using the image `className` attribute.

```tsx
import { Avatar } from '@skeletonlabs/skeleton-react';

export default function Filter() {
	return (
		<>
			<Avatar>
				<Avatar.Image src="https://i.pravatar.cc/150?img=48" className="filter-[url(#apollo)]" />
				<Avatar.Fallback>SK</Avatar.Fallback>
			</Avatar>
			<svg className="absolute -left-full w-0 h-0">
				<filter id="apollo" filterUnits="objectBoundingBox" primitiveUnits="userSpaceOnUse" colorInterpolationFilters="sRGB">
					<feColorMatrix
						values="0.8 0.6 -0.4 0.1 0,
            0 1.2 0.05 0 0,
            0 -1 3 0.02 0,
            0 0 0 50 0"
						result="final"
						in="SourceGraphic"
					/>
				</filter>
			</svg>
		</>
	);
}

```
