Google probably doesn’t want this to be a corner service, but for now you can create your own google-esque corners.

This is easy to do yourself. IIRC, ImageMagick even comes with code samples that generate rounded corners. And it's nothing new. There's an article I saw in Web Techniques magazine many years ago (found it: March 2000) that had a really clever rounded corner generator. It used an .htaccess file to send all 404 errors under /icon/ to a script that will make a rounded corner and place it under /icon/ so all subsequent requests go to a static file. All rounded corners are therefore built only once, ever!

I'd be very interested in seeing that .htaccess script... it could be very useful for doing caching of web requests.
