ImageMagick and GD Library
What's ImageMagick intended for? What is the GD Library? What lies behind their global popularity?
ImageMagick and GD are two of the most widely used graphic software libraries on the market. They make the dynamic creation and editing of images and graphs on a site feasible, so they need to be present on a web server if you host your internet sites on it and you want to have something different than static images with fixed dimensions. If ImageMagick and GD are installed, you shall be able to edit any image in many ways - create thumbnails, change the colors, flip it, blur it, etc. Of course, these tweaks are doable if the script app that you use on your website enables you to carry out such things. The 2 libraries could be used with different web development languages - PHP, Python, Perl, etcetera., and support over one hundred commonly used image formats that you'll be able to work with - PNG, PSD, JPEG, TIFF, GIF and more.
