Hey there Product hunt! We've just launched Pexels 2.0. It's nothing like one year ago as we posted it on PH. With this step we want to become an even better and free alternative to the traditional and paid stock photo sites like Getty Images, Shutterststock and co. With Pexels 2.0 it is even easier to find free stock photos. Many great new additions help … See more

@3runjo RiteTag lets users add images for topics to Tweets and Facebook posts, working with a number of APIs. If you'd like a test case for your API and can return 10 results of (image file,link for attribution) for a topic word or hashtag, we could do something. saul@ritetag.com Thanks.

@3runjo This is just awesome. Last week I spent about half a day searching for free stock photos for a Medium post I was writing. It was an insanely frustrating process and hands down the worst part of the writing experience. This just eliminated that half a day's worth of work. Thank you for sharing this awesome product!

@3runjo Thank you so much. I have been using free stock photos to place beautiful messages in my app called @oneminutapp. Very little budget, so can't afford to pay for these photos yet.. This is a treasure for me!

Jake Peters@jakeapeters · CEO & Founder @HelpDocs
I really like that you can search by color. This'll really make matching stock up with our designs way easier. Great tool! One question: do you automatically aggregate from other high-quality free stock sites, or do you curate manually? At the moment we're pretty fond of https://unsplash.com/ (and I can see you have at least some of their photos), but the s… See more

@jakeapeters We hand-pick the images from many free sources and add tags to the photos manually. One of the sources is Unsplash.

@jakeapeters Hey Jake :) I caught wind that you didn't know about search yet. I have some cool news: We've got search and filtering ability live on Unsplash.

Mike Hawkins@hawkinsmike · Co-founder (Riddle.com)
We're huge fans at Riddle.com - love the UI, the color search, and the sheer quality of the images. Such a refreshing way to get high quality images without the (shudder) cheesiness factor that characterizes so many stock photography sites. Keep up the good work!

Great job! Bookmarked. I'll definitely be checking up on this. I think it would be awesome to have a fixed header with a search option. After scrolling down the page it would be much easier to search and navigate. Cheers!

Amazing. You guys must have added lots of meta data to these images. Was that a manual process or some automated job to add meta data?
1·
Bruno Joseph@3runjo · Web Devloper
@sridhar_kondoji We add all tags manually to ensure high-quality. But the meta data like height, width, aperture, ISO, … is added automatically.
