ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that should be present on a server in order for images to appear on a specific site. They allow you to carry out a variety of tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so on. These things can easily be done online and in real time, so if you add a static image, for instance, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to show up on the website or for the image to be resized automatically depending upon the device and resolution the visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be employed with lots of web programming languages including PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to a single language to create your site. They work with over one hundred formats, which includes the most frequently used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
