ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that should be present on a hosting server in order for images to appear on a specific internet site. They enable you to perform various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so on. These things could be carried out online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for instance, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the site or for the image to be resized automatically based on the device and resolution that the site visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be used with lots of web programming languages such as PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not have to stick to only one language to create your internet site. They work with over a hundred formats, which includes the most widespread ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, etc.
