ImageMagick and GD are two of the most popular graphic software libraries out there. They make the dynamic creation and editing of images and graphs on an internet site feasible, so they need to be available on a web server if you host your websites on it and you prefer to have something different than static images with fixed dimensions. If ImageMagick and GD are present, you'll be able to edit any image in many ways - generate thumbnails, change the colors, flip it, blur it, and so forth. Needless to say, these tweaks are possible if the script application that you employ on your site permits you to perform such things. The two libraries could be used with numerous web development languages - PHP, Python, Perl, etc., and support over 100 widely used image formats which you will be able to work with - PNG, PSD, JPEG, TIFF, GIF and many more.
