ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a server for images to show up on a specific website. They allow you to perform different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. 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 appear on the website or for the image to be resized automatically with regards to the device and resolution the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be employed with many web programming languages such as PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't have to stick to only one language to develop your website. They work with over a hundred formats, which includes the most popular ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.
