ImageMagick and GD are two of the most frequently used graphic software libraries available on the market. They make the dynamic creation and editing of images and graphs on a site possible, so they need to be present on a web server if you host your sites on it and you would like to have something different than static images with fixed dimensions. If ImageMagick and GD are set up, you'll be able to edit any image in various ways - generate thumbnails, change the colors, flip it, blur it, and so on. Naturally, these modifications are feasible if the script app which you use on your internet site enables you to carry out such things. The 2 libraries can easily be used with different programming languages - PHP, Python, Perl, and so on., and support more than one hundred widely used image formats which you'll be able to work with - PNG, PSD, JPEG, TIFF, GIF and more.
