gedit, Lorem Ipsum generator, python, content ...

In March this year i wrote a short post about dummy content creation. There i presented James Halesthe's Lorem Ipsum Generator. It is now update to version 0.2 and shipped with new features and a better workflow (thanks for the copy & exit button).
LIG works perfect as an external tool for gEdit too:

Dummy content creation

Sunday, 9. March 2008, 20:36:30

gedit, Lorem Ipsum generator, external tool, gnome ...

When i started designing a portal website or programming a click dummy one thing is always needed: the content.
For dummy pictures i often used Fotolia. You can easily search for images and download lowres layout pictures. If a client like one of these dummy pictures you can buy them for a low budget then.
For text i found a tiny Lorem ipsum generator which i use as an external tool in gEdit. I wrote the Author that such a tool would be nice as a Gimp plugin too.
Besides that there are lorem ipsum text generators are online available and as a Firefox extension available.
