ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that ought to be present on a server in order for images to show up on a particular internet site. They permit you to execute different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things could be performed online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for instance, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to show up on the internet site or for the image to be resized automatically with regards to the device and resolution the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be employed with many web programming languages including PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to one particular language to build your website. They work with more than one hundred formats, which includes the most widely used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
