While the masses of pull requests and community involvement is appreciated, some pull requests have been specifically opened to market company APIs that offer paid solutions. This API list is not a marketing tool, but a tool to help the community build applications and use free, public APIs quickly and easily. Pull requests that are identified as marketing attempts will not be accepted.
Please make sure the API you want to add has a full free access or at least a free tier before submitting.
Thanks for understanding! :)

since it is mainly a social network, even though it could also apply to Photography

After you’ve created a branch on your fork with your changes, it’s time to make a pull request!
Once you’ve submitted a pull request, the collaborators can review your proposed changes and decide whether or not to incorporate (pull in) your changes.

repository by adding it as a remote.
Pull in changes from upstream
often so that you stay up to date and so when you submit your pull request,
merge conflicts will be less likely. See more detailed instructions here.Once you’ve opened a pull request, a discussion will start around your proposed changes.
Other contributors and users may chime in, but ultimately the decision is made by the collaborators.
During the discussion, you may be asked to make some changes to your pull request.
If so, add more commits to your branch and push them – they will automatically go into the existing pull request!
Opening a pull request will trigger a Travis CI build to check the validity of all links in the project. After the build completes, please ensure that the build has passed. If the build did not pass, please view the Travis CI log and correct any errors that were found in your contribution.
Thanks for being a part of this project, and we look forward to hearing from you soon!
