Starbeamrainbowlabs' Placeholder Service Help =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Welcome! You seem to have discovered my personal image placeholder service. Please do not use this for production purposes - though you may use it during development. Below is an explanation of the different GET paramters and what they do. Parameter Default Value Explanation ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- width 640 The width of the image. height 480 The height of the image. angle 0 The angle of the text in degrees. bg_colour aaaaaa The 6 digit hex code of the background colour without the preceding hash. Note that 3 digit hex codes will not work. fg_colour 777777 The text colour in the same format as described above. text (undefined) The text to use for the placeholder image. Omitting causes the image's dimensions to be used instead. weight normal The font weight to use. Other supported values: bold. quality 95 The quality to use when rendering the resulting jpeg. hash anything Set to anything you like to cause the service to generate a different etag for caching. Also useful for forcing the browser (or other application) to download a separate placeholder image if you want multiple random ones. Easter Eggs: fg_colour and bg_colour support special values of 'random' and 'inverse'.
