After a couple of failed apps, I created Unsplash but for AI-generated background image. (alien.top)

I just got out of a failed project, but creating with Midjorney gave me a great relief, especially after a day of working as a designer. The other day I thought maybe I could do it as a hobby project, so I made a website with a selection of my good work, and you can use them as you would use Unsplash, for free and with no terms.

I'm currently updating it at a rate of 10 images a day, you guys can use on your projects like website, flyers or presetations, let me know if you like it, it means a lot to me!

I also post img at X https://twitter.com/VaveBG

Looks really clean. I think it would be useful to be super clear on licensing though, something like: https://unsplash.com/license

The biggest advantage of Unsplash is its very generous license

I love this! I reckon I’m gonna end up using this website a lot. Thank you 🙂

Are planning to create paid service using this ?

When I created like 5000 images, perhaps I will start to monetize it but for now, its still a free side project

This is the first project where AI generated content does not feel like a huge disadvantage from a usability perspective.

Wow brilliant man 👌 image should get directly downloaded, instead of redirecting to other site.

Love the images, thanks for sharing!

I really like the gallery layout and UX. Is there a specific library you used to make this? I want to try to create similar. Or is your Github public?

Also, are you open to sharing prompts for images like these? I would love to try to make some of these myself.

Hey buddy,

I just made a update for this site.

Now you can see every prompt I used for creating those.

Go check it out.
