ImageMagick and GD Library
What is ImageMagick used for? What is the GD Library? What is the reason for their recognition?
If you would like to have dynamic images on your website, the server in which you host it must have the appropriate software for this. Rather than using static images with a fixed size, you can have thumbnails and automatically resized images in accordance with the device a site visitor uses or you could even flip and invert images through a script application. All of these things are doable via ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software that could be installed on a server and that work with a wide range of widespread scripting languages like: Perl, Python and PHP. That way, you may use images with any web-based application that you'd like, irrespective of the language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will allow you to work with over a hundred different image formats such as GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etcetera.
