It's a bit early to start claiming that Flash's days are numbered, but there are a few of us that are frustrated with Flash's performance (and crashiness). If you're starting to get frustrated about dealing with Flash, but are still craving full-featured web applications, there's some good news on the horizon. New apps are starting to get developed with comparable functionality to Flash, but with no Flash in sight. Sketchpad is a great example of this.
Sketchpad is a nicely designed web-based painting and drawing application. It's not going to replace Photoshop, but it's certainly full-featured and fast enough for quick edits. In fact, Sketchpad is surprisingly frugal with processor cycles, and snappier than I've come to expect from similar web apps.
If you're anti-Flash or even just looking for modern alternatives, Sketchpad might just be a comfortable fit in your bookmarks as your new online image editor.
