Description

If you’ve ever wanted to make your own dynamic placeholder images web site (like baconmockup or placekitten), this plugin is for you. Once it’s installed and you’ve added some images, you can access them at a URL with the desired height and width. Example: http://baconmockup.com/400/300/

Includes:

  • [dynamic-images-attribution] shortcode to display a complete list of images that can be used
  • JSON API

Be sure to check Settings/Dynamic Placeholder images to fully customize your settings.
