Unsplash License gives you full rights to images
Unsplash is an awesome site with thousands of free images you can use for commercial or noncommercial purposes. All images follow the Unsplash License that gives you full permission to use the images however you want. The only thing they do not permit is creating a competing service using the images on the site.
The images on Unsplash are surprisingly high quality, despite being completely free and unrestricted.
How to get a random image from Unsplash
Although you can get images by simply browsing their site and downloading an image, you can also get random images for your side project and demos by linking to source.unsplash.com/random/. For example:
1.https://source.unsplash.com/random
will produce a random image of random size.
How to get a random image from Unsplash of a particular size
You can get any random image size you want by appending `/${widthx}x${height}` to the /random route. For example:
1.https://source.unsplash.com/random/780x400
will produce a random image with width 780 and height 400.
