One of the things that makes the world of ColdFusion so wonderful is that you could probably just use those ASP solutions within CF, using the CFOBJECT tag or the CreateObject function. Admittedly, CF doesn't have an analog of ASP's Response.BinaryWrite function, but you could probably still create the image you need on the filesystem from CF, then use CFCONTENT to return it to the user. In addition, there are plenty of image generation options available, from CFX_GIFGD (free, simple CFX tag) to Macromedia Generator (very expensive).
