You could use the redirect(file) filter [1] to divert the GD output into
a temporary file. You can then return the url of that file in your html
which might save the second hit on the template.

There's possibly a security issue around having a web visible directory
writable by the apache user but it may be an acceptable risk.

A cron job should take care of deleting expired images.
