You can generate images in memory and then stream them out to the response:

Please refresh my memory.  I have a fair amount of VB.Net programming
experience but it's mostly Winforms not Webforms.

My question is this:  I want to dazzle my boss tomorrow with an
interactive graphics display but the only way I can get this to work
is by writing a temporary image file to disk, in other words, by
giving the ASP.Net Machine Account Write permission.  Is this a Bad
Idea and if so, why?
