Create placeholder images in any size and color, or hotlink a live URL like /600x400/cccccc/555555 anywhere an image goes. No uploads, no account, text size adjusts automatically.
Enter width and height, then pick colors with the pickers or paste hex codes straight into the fields next to them.
Type an optional label, or leave it empty to show the dimensions. The text sizes itself to fit. Choose PNG, JPG, or WEBP.
Click Download to save the file, or copy the Direct URL and paste it into any img tag, CMS, or mockup. The image generates on the fly.
Designing a wireframe and need rough placeholders before final imagery is ready? Generate dummy images at any size with custom text and colors, or skip the download entirely and hotlink a live URL that renders the placeholder wherever the page loads.
Faster than searching stock libraries for filler, and the dimensions match exactly what the layout requires.
Every image has a hotlinkable URL in the form /600x400/cccccc/555555 with an optional format extension and ?text= label. Paste it into an img src, a CMS, an email template, or a wireframe and the placeholder renders on request. Change the numbers in the URL and the image changes with them.
Pick background and text colors visually, or paste 3 or 6 digit hex codes directly into the fields beside each picker. The Random button generates a high-contrast pair. Skip the text color in a URL and the tool picks black or white automatically based on the background.
PNG is the default for both downloads and URLs, ready for any design tool. Switch to JPG for smaller photos-style files or WEBP for modern browsers. Labels scale automatically to fit the canvas, so there is no font size to fiddle with.
The editor runs on the HTML5 Canvas API in your browser and downloads save locally. URL-generated images are rendered on request and cached, nothing is stored about you. No signup, no watermark, no daily limits.
