Images as nodes on a javascript based particle network effect?

Question

I am trying to create a javascript based particle network with my own 20 circular images as its 20 different nodes.

I have tried using various available libraries and modifying them in the process but have no success yet - http://vincentgarreau.com/particles.js/ This library is the closest I could find and come to customising my solution.

Any pointers would certainly help.

Thank you!

Please see below edited particle.js file for my implementation.
