ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that need to be present on a web server to enable images to show up on a specific site. They enable you to execute different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so on. These things can certainly be done 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 internet site or for the image to be resized automatically depending upon the device and resolution that the visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be employed with many web programming languages including PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not have to stick to a single language to build your site. They work with more than a hundred formats, including the most popular ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.
