curl https://httpmemes.netlify.app/404.jpg --output 404.jpg

Direct URL in browser:

https://httpmemes.netlify.app/200.jpg
https://httpmemes.netlify.app/500.jpg
https://httpmemes.netlify.app/418.jpg

Meme Requirements

• Must be an empty meme template or a reaction image (no text overlays except built-in meme text). The meme template itself should convey the meaning and not the meme text.
• Must have a width of 1000px (height can vary to maintain aspect ratio).
• JPG format only (for now).

How to Contribute

1. Fork the repository on GitHub
2. Add your image to the images/ directory
   • Replace the image with your new meme (e.g. 404.jpg)
