ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that ought to be present on a server in order for images to show up on a given site. They allow you to perform different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things can easily be done online and in real time, so if you add a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the internet site or for the image to be resized automatically with regards to the device and resolution which the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be used with many web programming languages such as PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not have to stick to one particular language to create your website. They work with over a hundred formats, including the most popular ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.
