If all you need is a server-side library to create GIFs/JPEGs/PNGs and
to manipulate them, then libgd is your friend. It can be used from C,
PHP, etc.

If you need dynamic graphics, that can be manipulated in client-side
(e.g. by JavaScript code), then you are in troubles:

Canvas is great, but works only under Mozilla/FireFox.
SVG is great too, but works only under Mozilla/FireFox.
VMS is great too, but works only under Internet Explorer.
You can use Walterzorn, which works under both, but is slower.
TABLE-based pixeling works under both too, but is slow too.

However, there are some libraries that enable to use Canvas or SVG from
IE by emulating them using VML (e.g. excanvas).
