Is there a reason that some id's are not valid? #30

For example, ID 97 doesn't exist. I'm using this service to grab a random image, but associating it to the first byte character so it only changes on the object if the slug changes. But pretty randomly, certain characters will make it fail.

Hi,

The id's that doesn't exist anymore are of photos that had been deleted from unsplash.com. Any time that occurs, that id will stop working.

Would implementing something like issue #12 into unsplash.it solve your problem?
