Create Built-in Placeholder Generator
{% generateimage 'ik:placeholder' width=50 height=100 %}
We should also add a setting that points to an iterable that returns source files (which will be chosen from at random). We'll have to dig up a few free photos to bundle to make this useful from the start.
This should have a corresponding "placeholder" template tag that uses {% thumbnail %}'s syntax.
Feels weird to have to bundle images... but I guess there's no way around that.
@brianveloso the uniquitous Lena test image may help here -- I do believe It was part of a commit of mine you guys merged last winter. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenna
Hm, I don't think so. For this, I think it's better to get some new, sharp, inoffensive images of beaches and trees and normal stock photo stuff.
