This looks neat and might come in handy. I'm concerned about the legitimation, though.

Citing from https://unsplash.com/license:

> This license does not include the right to compile photos from Unsplash to replicate a similar or competing service.

I'd argue this is exactly the type of "similar or competing service" that is meant by this sentence.

Edit: Did Unsplash give their consent?

This site pre-dates the Unsplash license (and before Unsplash had their own API/website even, it started when they were still a tumblr blog), the images used on it is from back when Unsplash still licensed images under CC0.

We're on good terms with the Unsplash team, and think they're awesome.

Thank you for the clarification.
