Can you watermark an image on the fly - without replacing it

I want to add a watermark to thumbnails on-the-fly as they load up. Not create them as temp, and replace them permanently. Just to "show" with a watermark.

Is there a special means of doing this?

"Special"? Not really. It depends exactly how you're watermarking now, but basically the only difference is that you output the image instead of saving it to a file.

Yeah.
I've gone for the "background image in a DIV" with foreground image as a transparent worded-image. Seems to work.
