ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that need to be present on a server in order for images to show up on a specific site. They permit you to carry out a variety of tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so forth. These things can be done online and in real time, so if you add a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the website or for the image to be resized automatically depending upon the device and resolution that the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be used with various web programming languages including PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to one particular language to develop your website. They work with over 100 formats, which includes the most popular ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
