Click to get the URL!

By default, fetching a badge from Custom Icon Badges will use img.shields.io as the badge host.

You can set the host parameter to one of the following to override the hostname of the badge URL:

• img.shields.io
• staging.shields.io

If you would like to use a different badge host, fork and modify this repository. Create a PR if it may be useful to others.
