What information are you missing?

[dstftw]

Concrete URLs. Bother to read issue template.

[leonklingele]

Sorry! Updated.

[dstftw]

Are there any videos at all? Photos are out of scope of youtube-dl.

[leonklingele]

Yup, 500px also supports video uploads. <- Apparently this is no longer the case / never was.
Photos would be a nice and very useful addition to this project! Also see #9337.

[dstftw]

Provide example URLs with videos.

See my updated comment above. Anyway, I was interested in scraping photos only.
What's the issue with downloading photos?

https://github.com/RipMeApp/ripme/ supports 500px. Not sure if completely, but judging by the source code you should be able to rip pretty much anything from there.
