While developing I prefer not to use internet resources as it degrades load time (important when you are constantly refreshing the page to see your changes). Instead I use an SVG placeholder that adapts to any size you throw at it: http://jsfiddle.net/yL7Cz/

http://dummyimage.com/ works flawlessly too. I use it a lot in my dev cycles.

dummyimage is in fact made by one of the same guys, which makes the whole exercise confusing, because they appear to have the same interface but with different themes for their marketing.
