staticMapLite (staticmap.openstreetmap.de) was one of the options for OpenStreetMap static map images (tools which let you compose a URL to fetch a map image centred at specified location, generating such images and hosting the image at the URL).

Running yourself
The software is open source and you can host a staticMapLite server yourself. If you want to permalink to static map images, then self-hosting is very desirable. The knowledge that you could do self-hosting if the hosted version disappeared, is also valuable.
You need apache, php and imagemagic. With that you simply place the files in your www serving directory.
Source code is at https://github.com/dfacts/staticmaplite, but the software is unmaintained.
