~~Very nice indeed. Well done!~~

I have to correct myself. This is more than just nice, I really like the look and the simplicity of it. Now imagine this in a very slim case or even embedded in a dry wall :smiling_face_with_heart-eyes:

Thanks!! I would LOVE to be able to embed a mirror in drywall (someday the dream will come true lol).

Now that I know what to expect from framing and cable management I’d love to build a super slim version. I’ll be keeping an eye out for deals on laptop screens from now on I think :)

Nice Mirror!!
Which Font do you use?

Dear @delightedcrow,

thank you very much for this beautiful theme. I really like using WallberryTheme to beautify the background of my screen.
What strikes me is that the images do not seem to be truly random. I have linked it up to a bigger collection and keep seeing the same images over and over although statistically, this should not be the case. Did you experienced this as well?

Thanks!

delightedCrow

@rudibarani I’m so glad you like it!
I have noticed commonly recurring images with smaller collections, but I’m surprised it would happen so often in huge collections. When I get bored of seeing a certain collection sometimes I’ll leave the collections option blank so it pulls a random site-wide image and I don’t usually see any repeats that way, but maybe I just get lucky?

I don’t see anywhere in the unsplash API docs about how it chooses the random images so there’s a good chance it isn’t truly random. I’ll keep an eye out though :D

@delightedcrow Thanks for the quick reply.
I will send them an email to check how the random feature is implemented.

@delightedCrow It looks so incredible! Well done :)
I will try that myself. It looks super cool :)

Many greetings from hamburg,

@delightedCrow I would really like to know how you got the API. The description is too hard to get for me… I guess.

@Community: Do you guys have any idea?

I am planning to show a collection of pictures from the keyword search of my village. Therefore I would really like to know how to implement the modules as well as configuring the module on how to show only images of a certain keyword.

Hopefully someone can help. :)

Kind regards from hamburg,

Paul

for the random, this routine from the MMM-ImagesPhotos module is an example
the images are in an array. the WallberryTheme gets one pic at a time from the server side…

randomIndex: function(photos) {
		if (photos.length === 1) {
			return 0;
		}

		var generate = function() {
			return Math.floor(Math.random() * photos.length);
		};

		var photoIndex = generate();
		this.lastPhotoIndex = photoIndex;

		return photoIndex;
	},
