Image Placeholder Generator

An image placeholder is a temporary image used during web development and design to represent where a real image will be placed. Placeholders help visualize layout, spacing, and proportions before the final images are available. They are commonly used in UI/UX mockups, wireframes, and frontend development.

This tool generates placeholder images entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. You can customize dimensions, colors, and text to match your design needs, then download the image or copy Markdown/HTML tags directly.

1. Set dimensions — Enter the width and height in pixels. The maximum supported size is 4000×4000 pixels.
2. Choose colors — Pick a background color and text color using the color pickers. Blue background with white text is the default.
3. Customize text — Enter text to display on the placeholder. Leave blank to show dimensions (e.g., "800 x 600"). Supports multiline text (use Shift+Enter).
4. Select format — Choose PNG for lossless quality or JPEG for smaller file sizes.
5. Download or copy — Click Download Image to save, or use Copy Markdown / Copy HTML to embed directly in your code.
