1. A system for rendering an image, the system comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory storing instructions that when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to perform
causing a first drawing program that has a capability to draw in three dimensions to generate a first buffer and a second buffer in the system;
receiving an identifier of the first buffer from the first drawing program;
providing the identifier of the first buffer to a second drawing program to cause the second drawing program to generate a bitmap image into the first buffer, the second drawing program being different from the first drawing program and not being capable of drawing in three dimensions; and
causing the first drawing program to render the image using the first buffer and the second buffer.
