What does Placeholder Image Generator actually do?

The placeholder image tool draws a solid or labeled image at the width and height you set and lets you download it. It is a stand-in, not a photograph. Dimensions are pixels you type.

When should I use Placeholder Image Generator?

Use it for a wireframe or a broken-image stand-in in a layout.

When should I not use Placeholder Image Generator?

Do not use it as a production hero image.

What does Placeholder Image Generator not do?

Not a CDN URL that stays online. Download the file. Huge pixel sizes can stall the tab.
