Placeholder generator

Currently the placeholder depends on an extra service (external image request to your site). Is it possible to move it to application, so no external requests are required?

That's not totally true.

Mosaico library doesn't have any reference to external service: the library requires some backend services and you are supposed to implemnt thos services. This includes the placeholder generation ( see the "placeholder" parameter for the "img" backend service: https://github.com/voidlabs/mosaico/blob/master/backend/README.txt ) .

The static version of version of versafix-template currently include references to external urls like https://mosaico.io/srv/f-default/* but they are not used at all when the template is loaded by the mosaico library. Those images could also be saved locally in the versafix-template folder or even removed at all. Mosaico library will ask the placeholders to the provided backend when you load it.

Ah thx, as local fix I'll replace the link to custom static images 👍

Anyway you shouldn't see them being requested while using mosaico. If you see the requests to mosaico.io and you're using the last mosaico version open a bug for that.
