ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a web server in order for images to show up on a particular internet site. They enable you to carry out a variety of tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etc. These things can 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 with regards to the device and resolution the site visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be employed with many different web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to just one language to build your website. They work with more than 100 formats, including the most widespread ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.
