ImageMagick and GD Library
Learn what ImageMagick is and what the GD Library is used for and why they are so widely common.
If you would like to have dynamic images on your internet site, the machine in which you host it must have the proper software for this. Instead of using static images with a fixed size, you can have thumbnails and automatically resized images based on the device a visitor uses or you may even flip and invert images using a script app. All of these things are possible with ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software that can be set up on a server and which work with a large amount of frequently used scripting languages like: Perl, Python and PHP. That way, you may use images with any web-based app that you'd like, regardless what language it was created with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will permit you to work with over one hundred different image formats like GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so forth.
