What is Lorem Picsum?

Lorem Picsum is the perfect online tool for developers and designers who need temporary images quickly and easily. Instead of filling your project with static, irrelevant images, Lorem Picsum provides dynamic, random photos that you can customize in size and effect. It is the visual counterpart to Lorem Ipsum text: a placeholder that helps you focus on the layout and design of your website or application.

Why is Lorem Picsum so useful?

Speed: You don't have to search, download, or upload images. With a simple URL call, you get an image directly in your project.
Dynamic and customizable: You can set the dimensions (width and height) of the image, choose a grayscale or sepia tone effect, or even select a random image from a specific author.
Test responsive design: By using the tool, you can easily test how your website handles different image sizes and aspect ratios, which is essential for a good user experience on all devices.

How to use our Lorem Picsum Generator?

Our tool simplifies the process of generating the right URL for your dummy image. Follow these steps to create your URL:

Set the dimensions: Determine the desired width and height of the image (for example, 800x600).
Add effects (optional): Choose whether you want the image in black and white (grayscale) or apply a sepia tone.
Generate the URL: The tool instantly creates a unique URL that you can use directly in your HTML or CSS code. Every time the page is loaded, a random image is generated that meets your specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions about Lorem Picsum

Here we answer some frequently asked questions about this useful tool:

What is the difference with other dummy image generators?

Unlike many other generators, which often have limited and outdated images, Lorem Picsum uses a vast and ever-growing library of beautiful photos from the Unsplash website.

Can I select a specific image?

Yes. By adding the ID of a specific image to the URL, you can always load the same image, which is useful for consistent tests or mockups.

Fun Facts about Lorem Picsum and dummy content

The name "Picsum" is a portmanteau of the words "picture" and "Ipsum," which perfectly summarizes its function as a visual placeholder.
The use of dummy content (both text and images) dates back to the early days of the printing industry, where such techniques were used to test layouts before the final text was available.
All the photos on the website come from talented photographers who share their work under the Unsplash license, making them free to use in your projects.
