The only suggestion I would give is to have a smooth inter fade between the refresh of the image collection. Cool implementation.

If you wanted to pull from a larger pool, then the cactory class, acting as a facade over multiple web service API's could be leveraged. you'd also probably want an Adapter pattern to make all your image objects uniform.
