I really like the way unsplash works. The new media library tab is great, and  I appreciate that the photo is being moved into my media library as well.

I'd prefer that I not *have* to log in to use the plugin. Would be good if it still worked without that. But it's really great, everyone should try it.

Fantastic plugin
