I have a URL static URL that's being hit all the time:
"http://xyz.com/image.jpg". I want instead to put an ASPX file in that will
either output a dynamic JPEG itself or at least do a redirect to the JPEG I
want.

How can I create a configuration that will "replace"
"http://xyz.com/image.jpg" with an ASPX? And I want to do this somehow INSIDE
the VS.NET Web Project and not in an IIS config because I want it to actually
work when I debug it through the VS IDE.

Thanks for your help.

Yes You are right. Ashx handlers are better because they don't have
unnecessary page life cycle.
