GeoIP is correct. You would need image manipulation tools on your webhost (PHP works great for this, using GD), as well as having them install mod_geoip on Apache. They also need the free GeoIP city database (not as accurate as the pay version, but hey, it's free) in order to resolve cities/regions instead of just countries. Then, you whip it together and dynamically generate an image displaying the user's supposed city or region.
