Very slow discobot certificate generation on our server

I assumed that the svg embedding the base64’ed avatar was for the same reason it “was doing” the logo: so that the certificate could be a snapshot in time — maybe saved by the awardee, without any external dependencies, so that it would still render later the exact same way.

The iframe approach prevents it from being easily shared and bragged about on a post. I don’t know how common this is on other forums, but I have seen some of our users doing it by just copying the URL of the image.

If going with linking to something external, wouldn’t using <image> work here and avoid the need to change allowed_iframes?
