Colormind vs DummyImage

Colormind

Colormind generates five-color palettes from a model trained on movies, art, and popular color schemes, returning a plain array of RGB triples from a single POST to /api/ with no signup. A live probe of the real gateway confirmed it now answers over HTTPS as well as HTTP (correcting https false -> true) and sends Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * on every response, resolving cors unknown -> yes.

DummyImage

DummyImage generates placeholder images on the fly from a simple URL pattern — width, height, background/text color, and format (PNG, GIF, or JPG) are all encoded in the path — with no signup or key. A live GET against the real host returned a genuine PNG carrying Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, resolving cors unknown -> yes and reconfirming auth None.
