ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that should be present on a server in order for images to appear on a given internet site. They permit you to execute different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things can certainly be done 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 with regards to the device and resolution which the site visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be used with many different web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't have to stick to just one language to create your internet site. They work with more than one hundred formats, which includes the most widely used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.
