More than a year ago, a WRD post had shared "8 Free Placeholder Image Services For Instant Dummy Images".

Here is a new one: Cambelt, which is a full-featured service for placeholder images.

It works by using special URLs as the image source (like http://cambelt.co/468x60 will generate an image with the mentioned dimensions) and has support for custom text + images with custom colors.

The service is even possible to use custom fonts, font sizes and ask for a specific filetype (like http://cambelt.co/400x300/Custom+Text?font_size=12&format=jpg).

Also, besides the standard placeholder images, it can provide icons in any size as well.
