If you want to have dynamic images on your internet site, the server where you host it needs to have the appropriate software for that. Instead of using static images with a fixed size, you may have thumbnails and automatically resized images depending on the device a site visitor uses or you could even flip and invert images through a script app. All of these things are doable via ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software which can be installed on a server and that work with a wide range of frequently used scripting languages such as: Perl, Python and PHP. Thus, you could use images with any web-based app that you would like, irrespective of the language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will enable you to work with more than a hundred different image formats like GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so on.

Regardless if you use a custom script, one of the applications that you are able to install from the Hepsia Control Panel or some third-party app that you find online, you're able to build feature-rich interactive sites, for example image galleries or socially-oriented portals where both you and the users can work with graphs and / or images in real time provided that the script offers such options.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Servers

Both ImageMagick and GD Library are available on the cloud web hosting platform where your new semi-dedicated server account shall be set up, which means that you can employ all of the attributes of any script application which requires any of the two libraries so as to manage images, such as Joomla™, WordPress, image galleries, discussion forums, and so on. If you are a web developer, you can write the code yourself because we also support plenty of programming languages PHP and Python are among them.
