Well, the way you would accomplish this is break up the creation of the image
and the creation of the HTML that includes the image into two separate scripts.
Script one uses the H::T template to produce html and sends that to the client
with an image tag: <img src="/cgi-bin/script2.cgi">.  Script2.cgi uses GD to
create an image, sets the Content-type header to image/gif (or whatever is
appropriate) and writes the image to stdout (sending the data to the users
browser).  No temp files to clean up!
