Hello,
If you don't mind a little inefficency, there's
always the pbm,pbm,and ppm fgraphics file formats
(respecitively 1-bit, grayscale, 24bit color) Takes
10 -- 120 seconds to completely understand the format,
the higher number only if you've been recently hit
on the head.
They're perfect for those 3-am-and-I've-never-written-
a-graphics-file sort of scenarios.
And, xv can view these formats. If you need a more
standard format, just run 'em through a conversion utility
like Image Magick's convert .

Of course, Image::Magick is amazingly slow. I'd suggest GD instead (sometimes up to 100x faster). If we *really* wanted speed we could (insert crazy scheme here)...
