Instant Placeholder Images
The Placeholder Image Generator creates custom placeholder images in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Enter width, height, background color, text color, and optional text. The image is generated locally — no external service calls, no API keys, no rate limits.
Common Size Presets
Choose from presets organized by category: social media sizes (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube), ad banner sizes (Leaderboard, Rectangle, Skyscraper), and device screen sizes (iPhone, iPad, HD, Full HD, 4K). Click a preset to instantly set the dimensions.
Customizable Appearance
Set any background color and text color using color pickers. By default, the placeholder shows the image dimensions as text. Override this with custom text and adjust the font size for your needs.
Code Snippets
The tool generates ready-to-use HTML <img> tags and CSS background snippets. Copy the code with one click and paste into your project for quick prototyping.
