Placeholder Image Generator Online

Updated 2026-08-19

Generate placeholder images online for free. Set any size, choose colours and a label, and get a crisp SVG placeholder you can copy as markup, embed as a data-URI image tag, or download as a PNG. Everything runs in your browser, so there is no external placeholder service and nothing is uploaded.

Mockups need image slots before the real assets exist, and relying on a third-party placeholder host means an extra request and a dependency that can break. This generator makes the placeholder locally — vector-sharp, sized exactly how you want, and labelled with the dimensions or your own text — so it drops straight into a wireframe, a responsive test, or a design handoff.

// how to use

1 Set the width and height, or pick a preset size like 1200×630.
2 Choose background and text colours and an optional label.
3 Copy the SVG or the image tag, or download a PNG.

// faq

Is anything uploaded to a server?

No. The image is generated entirely in your browser, so nothing you make leaves your machine — and there is no external placeholder service to depend on.

What format is the placeholder?

It is a crisp vector SVG. You can copy the SVG markup, copy an image tag that embeds it as a data URI, or export a raster PNG at the exact pixel size.

Why use a data URI image tag?

A data URI embeds the whole image inline in the tag, so the placeholder needs no separate file or network request and works offline. It is handy for quick mockups and prototypes.

How is the PNG created?

The SVG is drawn onto a canvas at the width and height you set and exported as a PNG, all in your browser. It downloads at the exact pixel dimensions.

Can I set custom text?

Yes. Leave the label blank to show the pixel size automatically, or type your own text such as a section name to label the mockup.
