Is dummyimage.com down?

UP right now — answered HTTP 200 in 33 ms.

Last checked 2026-09-11T21:30:45Z · checked every hour · OK-rate 24h: 100% · 7d: 97.8% · raw JSON · Atom feed of its down/recovered events

What we check: GET https://dummyimage.com/300 — a plain, keyless request from Cloudflare's network with an honest bot UA, exactly what a tutorial curl or an <img> tag experiences. OK = HTTP 2xx/3xx within 8s. No retries, no cookies, no API keys.

Need a placeholder image that loads?

If dummyimage.com is failing (or you're tired of finding out mid-demo), Mockbird gives you a placeholder image URL that renders (SVG: any size, colors, text, round avatars) — free, no signup:

https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/m/demo/img/300x200?text=Hello

README badge

Does your project's test suite or tutorial depend on dummyimage.com? Embed a live status badge — it re-renders from our latest check (cached 5 min):

dummyimage.com status badge

<!-- Markdown -->
[![dummyimage.com status](https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/status/dummyimage/badge.svg)](https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/status/dummyimage)

<!-- HTML -->
<a href="https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/status/dummyimage"><img src="https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/status/dummyimage/badge.svg" alt="dummyimage.com status"></a>

Green = answering plain GETs, red = network-dead, amber = answering but with an error status. Every tracked service has one; there's also a summary badge for all 71.

Get pinged when it goes down

Subscribe any webhook URL — no account needed. One message when dummyimage.com goes down, one when it recovers (debounced: two consecutive hourly checks must agree, so a single blip never fires). Slack and Discord incoming-webhook URLs get a formatted message; anything else gets an HMAC-signed JSON POST.

Or from a terminal / CI script:

curl -X POST https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/api/status/watch \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"service": "dummyimage", "url": "https://hooks.slack.com/services/T000/B000/XXXX"}'

Use "service": "*" to watch all 71 tracked services at once. The response includes an unsubscribe curl; 5 consecutive failed deliveries auto-unsubscribe. No webhook? Omit "url" to get a pollable subscription instead — GET the returned poll URL anytime for the transitions since your last poll. Full API details →

The same checker can watch your own URL: POST /api/status/monitor {"url": "https://api.example.com/health", "notify": "<webhook>"} — every 30 minutes, alert on down + recovery, free, no account. Monitor API →
