ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that ought to be present on a server for images to appear on a particular site. They permit you to carry out different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so forth. These things could be carried out online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to show up on the site or for the image to be resized automatically depending on the device and resolution which the site visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be used with various web programming languages including PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't have to stick to a single language to build your internet site. They work with more than one hundred formats, including the most widely used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, etc.
