Cool. Yeah, I'd guess they stitched together:

1. some sort of free software HTML rendering engine to turn HTML and
pics into a graphic. Probably the Mozilla engine or the Konqueror
engine.
2. ImageMagick or GD to shrink & crop that image.

Or maybe there's an easier way to do it that I'm not thinking of now.
