ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that should be present on a web server for images to appear on a certain internet site. They allow you to perform different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so on. These things could be performed online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for instance, 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 the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be employed with a lot of web programming languages including PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to a single language to develop your website. They work with more than 100 formats, which includes the most widespread ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
