ImageMagick and GD are two of the most popular graphic software libraries nowadays. They make the dynamic creation and editing of images and graphs on a site doable, so they should be installed on a server if you host your internet sites 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 a variety of ways - create thumbnails, change the colors, flip it, blur it, and so forth. However, these tweaks are possible if the script app that you use on your website enables you to do such things. The two libraries could be used with various web development languages - PHP, Python, Perl, and so on., and support over 100 widely used image formats which you will be able to work with - PNG, PSD, JPEG, TIFF, GIF and others.
