A placeholder image is a temporary image used during design mockups or development to represent where a real image will appear. They show the intended dimensions and are often labeled with the size.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes, completely free with no account required. Open the tool and start generating immediately.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. All image generation happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas 2D API. No data is sent to any server.
What is the maximum image size I can generate?
You can generate images up to 4096 × 4096 pixels. The preview is scaled to fit the screen, but the downloaded or copied image is always at the exact pixel dimensions you specified.
What export formats are supported?
PNG (default, lossless) and JPEG (with adjustable quality from 70–100). You can also copy the image as a Data URL or raw Base64 string.
