If you would like to have dynamic images on your internet site, the server in which you host it must have the proper software for this. Rather than using static images with a fixed size, you could have thumbnails and automatically resized images in accordance with the device a website visitor uses or you may even flip and invert images via a script application. All these things are possible through ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software that can be set up on a hosting server and which work with a lot of frequently used scripting languages like: Perl, Python and PHP. In this way, you could use images with any web-based app you'd like, regardless what language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The 2 libraries shall allow you to work with over a hundred different image formats such as GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etc.
ImageMagick and GD Library in Cloud Hosting
Our custom cloud server platform provides the suitable software environment for your sites regardless of the content that you'd like to have. Galleries as well as any other kinds of websites which employ images and charts are not an exception since ImageMagick and GD Library can be found with all the cloud plans that we offer. Your account will be created on our cloud platform and no matter which PHP version you want 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 application which you are using offers such functions, you will be able to use images from the administrative section, while the site guests will be able to do this by using the front end of the site.
