Generate placeholder images for projects

Here are some ideas and approaches to generate placeholder images for projects:

  1. Using Online Placeholder Image Services
    You can quickly get placeholder images via URLs with customizable size, background, text, etc. Examples:

Example URL:
https://via.placeholder.com/600x400?text=Project+Image

  1. Generate Placeholder Images Programmatically
    If you want to create placeholder images in your projects or for your site, here’s a simple way using Python with Pillow (PIL):

python
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont def create_placeholder(width=600, height=400, text="Placeholder"): img = Image.new('RGB', (width, height), color=(200, 200, 200)) draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img) try: font = ImageFont.truetype("arial.ttf", 40) except: font = ImageFont.load_default() text_width, text_height = draw.textsize(text, font=font) position = ((width - text_width) // 2, (height - text_height) // 2) draw.text(position, text, fill=(50, 50, 50), font=font) img.show() # or img.save('placeholder.png') create_placeholder()
  1. Design Tools
    Use graphic design tools like Canva, Figma, or Adobe XD to create branded or styled placeholder images. Export and reuse across your projects.

  2. Use AI Image Generation
    I can also generate custom placeholder images on demand based on a style or theme you want, just specify.

Would you like me to generate a few sample placeholder images here with specific dimensions, colors, or text?
