A dummy placeholder image (often called Lorem Ipsum Image) is a temporary graphic used during website design, prototyping, and development. It fills visual space where final images will eventually go, helping designers and developers visualize layouts without needing actual photography or final artwork.
Choose dimensions that match your final image requirements. Common sizes include 800Ă—600 for general use, 1920Ă—1080 for hero banners, 1200Ă—628 for social media sharing, 300Ă—250 for ads, and 375Ă—667 for mobile mockups. Our tool includes preset sizes for quick selection.
PNG offers lossless quality and supports transparency. JPEG provides smaller file sizes ideal for photos. WebP combines small size with excellent quality, supported by all modern browsers. SVG is resolution-independent and perfect for responsive designs, with the smallest file size for simple graphics.
Use a neutral background like light gray (#e0e0e0) for generic placeholders. Match your brand colors if the placeholder represents branded content. Ensure sufficient contrast between background and text for readability. Dark backgrounds with white text work well for hero image placeholders.
