Rate Limit

By default, you can make up to 5,000 requests per hour. Requests are associated with the API key, and not with your IP address. The response headers tell you everything you need to know about your current rate limit status:

Header name	Description
X-RateLimit-Limit	The maximum number of requests that the consumer is permitted to make in 30 minutes.
X-RateLimit-Remaining	The number of requests remaining in the current rate limit window.
X-RateLimit-Reset	The remaining time in seconds after which the current rate limit window resets.

To keep the Pixabay API fast for everyone, requests must be cached for 24 hours. Also, the API is made for real human requests; do not send lots of automated queries. Systematic mass downloads are not allowed. If needed, we can increase this limit at any time - given that you've implemented the API properly.

Old gems

Would it be possible to update gems?
Or remove Gemfile.lock?

My main problem is http. The version required is quite old.
