Here's a use case for how easy (or not) it is to create graphics using JavaScript without either <canvas> or <svg>. Click on the "concatenate" button (in the example) to compare time efficiency of different bitmap-like objects in different browsers. http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/javascript/stringtimer.html This was actually built to contrast under-the-hood string-concatenation algorithms in the different browsers rather than to make real images, but to make a long story short, creating a 100px x 100px bitmap-like object in Opera, IE and FF takes a maximum of about 700 milliseconds using the fastest of the three algorithms exhibited on a three year old computer.
