It can't be a URL, but it can be a filename. Actually, if you have PHP's 
"url fopen" feature enabled, then possibly it could be a URL. I don't 
know if the php gd library uses the standard PHP fopen or the normal one.

If you are using MRTG, or something else that actually generates images 
on disk, then just use the filename to be safe. If you are using Cacti, 
or something else that does on-the-fly graph creation, then you might 
need to have a little wget script fetch the images to a file first. That 
way you can use them as ICONs as Paul described.
