Wikimedia Image Search - Wikipedia API Based

Have you ever thought of having a Image Search option in your web page without having a image librarary? I did. So I was finding a way to grab some data using a API based on Wikipedia. If you're new to Wikimedia.org, there are probably five things you may not know about images on Wikimedia.

1. Most images used on Wikipedia are actually on Wikimedia Commons
2. There is more to our images than you can see at first look at Wikimedia
3. Wikimedia have almost forty million media files
4. Wikimedia have more than photographs
5. You can use (free) images from Wikipedia on your own site, or anywhere you like.

Wikimedia Image Search is based on Wikipedia API. It gives you to image data on your website or web page. As the API is based on http request based, this script uses CURL command to get information from Wikimedia to a JSON array and manipulate those data in bootstrap based fron end. The script is very easy to understand and easy to edit. Even a basic PHP user can handle this script.
