Every time it will be a random URL to any of the images obtained from News API.

[edit by admin: formatting]

Free accounts are limited to accessing sites on our whitelist. If the site you're trying to connect to is part of an official public API, then you can post a link to the documentation of the API here in the forums, and we'll see if we can add it.

are paid accounts allowed to do the above? or they are limited too ?

Paid accounts don't have this limit
