ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that ought to be present on a server in order for images to show up on a given internet site. They enable you to carry out different 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 visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be employed with many web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to just one language to create your website. They work with more than a hundred formats, which includes the most frequently used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
