Using perl, sed or awk, you just change the addr, the existing html 
remains in place.

Then again:

convert -font helvetica -fill black -draw "text 10,10 id at domain" foo.jpg 
nfoo.jpg

Does run pretty quickly...

A bit more work to embed the image as you'd still have to do the perl, 
sed, awk fun.
