Dynamic placeholder images
09 Oct 2015
I found this and thought it would be really useful, especially for designers or people mocking up sites.
If you ever need a placeholder image, you don’t need to create one, you can just use this url with the size of placeholder image you want:
As well as the size, you can change the text, the colour of the background and text, and the format of the image.
