Placehold.it

Netsans Rocks!Placehold.it is a sim­ple place­holder ser­vice for when you need place­holder images in html mock­ups. Just use the http://placehold.it/ url as the source in your image tag, fol­lowed by some para­me­ters to set the size, text, color etc.

Like this:

<img src="http://placehold.it/300x150&text=netsans+rocks!" />

Very clever and useful.

Go check out Nick’s tuto­r­ial here
