If you would like to have dynamic images on your internet site, the machine where you host it should have the suitable software for that. Instead of using static images with a fixed size, you can have thumbnails and automatically resized images in accordance with the device a visitor uses or you could even flip and invert images through a script app. All these things are doable via ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software which could be set up on a hosting server and which work with a wide range of widely used scripting languages such as: Perl, Python and PHP. Thus, you may use images with any web-based application you want, irrespective of the language it was designed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The 2 libraries will allow you to work with over 100 different image formats such as GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so on.
ImageMagick and GD Library in Cloud Website Hosting
Our custom-built cloud server platform supplies the perfect software environment for all your sites regardless of the content that you would like to have. Galleries and all other types of websites that use images and graphs are not an exception because ImageMagick and GD Library are accessible with all the cloud website hosting plans that we supply. Your account will be set up on the cloud hosting platform and no matter which PHP version you wish to use (4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5), both the libraries will be enabled by default, not on demand. If the script app that you are using offers such features, you could use images from the administrative section, while your site visitors will be able to do this using the front end of the website.
