so this will allow be to dynamically generate an image as a background with text on top, pulled from a database? If so it sounds spiffy!

Yes. You can either create the entire coupon as an image in your renderer and return that. Or if you want to lay text on top of it, you'll have to do things a little bit trickier and create a div or a table with the renderer as the background for it.

The magic code depends on how you want to generate your bitmap image. You may have a third party library, you may simply load a file from the server, you may generate your own image dynamically using GDI+. It's up to you. As long as the "magic code" renders a bitmap for you. You'll be set.
