100% client-side — rendered in your browser, no URL service

Generate placeholder images,
without the hotlink.

Dummy images at any size for mockups, layouts and test data — custom colors, gradients and labels, exported as PNG, JPG, WEBP or SVG.

How it works

  1. 1

    Set the size

    Type exact pixel dimensions or pick a preset — HD, square, Open Graph card, thumbnail. Anything up to 8000 × 8000.

  2. 2

    Style it

    Choose a solid color or a two-stop gradient, and keep the dimensions label or replace it with your own text.

  3. 3

    Download

    Grab a PNG, JPG or WEBP at full resolution — or an SVG that scales to any size. Rendered locally, instantly.

Frequently asked questions

Why not just use a placeholder URL service?+

Hotlinked placeholder services add an external request to every page load, go down, get rate-limited, and leak your traffic to a third party. A generated file is yours: it works offline, in air-gapped environments, and never changes under you.

What are placeholder images for?+

Mockups, wireframes and layouts that need an image before the real asset exists — plus test fixtures, CMS seeding and email templates. The dimensions label makes it obvious at a glance which slot each image belongs to.

Which format should I download?+

PNG is the safe default. JPG is smaller for large images, WEBP smaller still. SVG is text-based and scales losslessly — ideal when the same placeholder needs to fill many differently-sized slots.

Is there a size limit?+

Up to 8000 × 8000 pixels — beyond what any layout realistically needs. Since rendering happens on your device, there are no download quotas or rate limits.

Is it free?+

Yes — free, unlimited, no signup, no watermarks.
