You can make a servlet and point the url (with or without parameters)
of the image to that servlet,

in the doPost or doGet method:
final BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage(canvasWidth,
canvasHeight, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
final Graphics2D graphics2D = image.createGraphics();
// create the image... (you can use parameters from the url).
...
//at the end :
response.setContentType("image/jpg");
final ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ImageIO.write(image, "jpg", baos);
final OutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
baos.writeTo(out);
baos.flush();
out.close();

greets,
Erik
