Answer 1

Picasso has a built in function for displaying placeholder images. Use it like this:

Picasso.with(context)
   .load(imageUrl)
   .placeholder(R.drawable.image_name);

Answer 2

Use this code :

Picasso.with(context)
   .load(url)
   .placeholder(R.drawable.placeholder).into(imageView);



 In above code:
     url is the url of image that you want to load into imageview. 
     R.drawable.placeholder is the placeholder image that is placed in your project drawable folder.
     imageview is the object of imageview into which you want to load image.

Answer 3

You just put your static drawable image for your imageView in your xml file,as:

android:background="@drawable/image"`

It will help u.

Answer 4

Picasso supports both download and error placeholders as optional features.

Picasso.with(context)
.load(url)
.placeholder(R.drawable.user_placeholder)
.error(R.drawable.user_placeholder_error)
.into(imageView);

A request will be retried three times before the error placeholder is shown.
