Built for devs & designers
Need a 1200×630 social card, a square avatar block or a banner-ad slot while you wire up layout? Generate a labelled placeholder at the exact pixel dimensions, grab a PNG or a scalable SVG, and drop it straight into your mockup — no account, no watermark, no server round-trip. The label field accepts {W} and {H} tokens so the text tracks the size, and the font auto-fits unless you set one explicitly.
Everything a placeholder should do.
- Set exact pixel dimensions from 1px to 5000px wide or tall — type them in or use a quick-size preset.
- Choose any background and text color with the color picker or by typing a hex code (both stay in sync).
- Add a custom label or let it default to the dimensions — use
{W}and{H}tokens to keep it in step with the size. - Jump to 8 quick-size presets including OG image, social square, 16:9, leaderboard, banner, avatar, hero and story.
- Export as PNG for raster use or SVG for infinitely scalable vector output, with auto-fit or fixed font size.
- Copy the data URL to paste straight into CSS, HTML or a design tool — no file to manage.
Four steps, no signup.
- Set the width and height in pixels, or click a quick-size preset to fill them for you.
- Pick a background and text color — via the swatch or a hex code — then type an optional label.
- Choose an auto or fixed font size and whether you want PNG or SVG output; the preview updates live.
- Click Download to save the file, or Copy data URL to paste the image inline.
