Yes, you have scalable vector graphics, and then images and textures of 
of which sprites are a form of.

And then you have text which might not fit into either of those 
categories (certainly, having scalable solid-filled text is rather 
specialised and hard to get right - I've tried it).

But this is about a fairly basic library and getting started.
