Here is a free online dummy image generator website. Its name is “DummyImage.com“. You can select height and width of your choice and preview the output image. The image preview is visible within the same page to help you check if image is good to use. You can also edit or change image resolution and it will automatically show the output preview. If the output is good, you can select output format as PNG, JPG, or GIF. You can click on the image and it will open in a new tab. Finally, you will be able to save the image in that particular format using right-click context menu.
By default, the output image background is set to black color and foreground color (which shows image resolution) to white color. But, you can also change both colors using the available color palettes. In addition to that, if you don’t want to see image resolution text, then you can also add a custom text using the available field. Or else, you can simply press space in the custom text field to generate dummy image with only background color.
In the screenshot above, you can see a dummy image generated using this free website and custom text is visible on that image. If custom text or space is used in the available field, then you need to manually add PNG or JPG as file extension to save the image in that particular format.
