With latest revision from Nov 7, 2015, I get this traceback when I try to use the lorempixel extension (the other two work well):

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "lorempixel.py", line 52, in
placeholder.affect()
File "/usr/share/inkscape/extensions/inkex.py", line 268, in affect
self.effect()
File "lorempixel.py", line 20, in effect
image = self._get_image()
File "lorempixel.py", line 31, in _get_image
context = ssl._create_unverified_context()
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '_create_unverified_context'

It seems this has to do with my Python being Python 2.7.6, and the private functions used here are only available from python 2.7.9 upwards.

Wasn't able to solve the problem, though :-/, I don't know enough about python/ssl/urllib .
(solved it for myself by turning https into http, but that's probably not a good general solution).

Hello World !

I will try this plugin but when i want to use any service, i have this error message

(CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:661)

The complete error message :

It is impossible from inside Inkscape to see the licence and author of the images that are pulled in from the web.

So wouldn't it make sense to add this info to the readme file:

Lorempixel images: CC-By-SA (but useless without author info)
Unsplash Images: CC-0
Uifaces: for private mockups only (no publishing)

and to warn users to never use the extension (except the Unsplash one) for any other purpose than for mockups?
(Could also be added into the .inx files)

Hello,
Thank you for providing this extension for Inkscape users!

This is just to let you know that most 3rd party Inkscape extensions, like this one, probably will not work with the upcoming new Inkscape version, the long-awaited version 1.0.

Here is the info you need to update this extension, so that it will work with 1.0 and future versions.
https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=Updating_your_Extension_for_1.0

If you have further questions, you can contact Inkscape developers via mailing lists, forum, or the chatroom.

If you have already updated it, please disregard this message.

All best,
brynn
