Noun Project
The Noun Project's API searches and returns metadata for its library of 10 million+ SVG/PNG icons and stock photos, authenticated with OAuth 1.0a via a registered consumer key/secret pair; free use requires attribution while paid plans remove it. A live GET against the real gateway, api.thenounproject.com, now succeeds over HTTPS (correcting https false -> true) but returned no Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, resolving cors unknown -> no.
