This site lets you do some of these things:
http://ojw.dev.openstreetmap.org/StaticMap/ , it's not perfect but it
works for me.

Any website based on C. Dauth's javascript classes also let you add
markers visually or encoded in the URL, http://osm.cdauth.eu/map/ is
an example.  But then you need to make screenshots.
