Pieces could be recolored when rendering the board as a single image, and in table- or CSS-rendered diagrams, script URLs in place of image files. For simplicity's sake, it might be best to do it all through a script that shows individual pieces in specific colors. This is assuming that GD can load an image from a PHP script. But this should be done only for solid-color pieces. So, it would be best to do it with new sets or to adapt some pre-existing sets to handle changes in color.
