Hola Product Hunt, Cool Backgrounds is a curated list of javascript libraries that lets you create a one-of-a-kind image for blog posts, website backgrounds or to use as a phone wallpaper. πŸ“” The "Background" While finishing up another side project CSS Gradient (), I unexpectedly noticed the popularity of free wallpaper and background image websites. As useful as static images are, what was missing was a tool that enables non-technical folks to use all the emerging javascript libraries to create unique images of their own. So Cool Backgrounds was born πŸ’₯. πŸ‡²πŸ‡½ Maker Bio My name is Moeβ€”I’m a Mexican designer trained at MIT and based in San Francisco. I created Cool Backgrounds because I ran into the problem first hand of wanting a compelling image for another side project and ended up using javascript to create it, but damn was it painful. Not anymore 😊
ORALEEE esta bueniiiisimo!!!

πŸ™ for hunting! Have a few more features to add to CoolBG but the next project is related to open graph visualization, think: a site that previews (and let’s you edit) how you look across all social channels. I’ve been wanting it forever!
This is why I love Product Hunt so that we are all able to find sites like this one.
I LOVE this! Just made myself a beautiful new iPhone wallpaper.

Hi I'm wondering if you'll have any information about the copywriting, or terms of use? For now it's all completely free to use? I'm wondering if this could be a tool I can share with some folks who might be designing websites for commercial use

Thanks for the question. I need to make this more clear, but everything will be CC0 licensed, and I believe for more interactive images you actually own the copyright. But I need to double check on that. Cheers!
