If you would like to have dynamic images on your website, the server where you host it should have the appropriate software for that. Rather than using static images with a fixed size, you could have thumbnails and automatically resized images depending on the device a visitor uses or you can even flip and invert images using a script application. All of these things are possible through ImageMagick and GD library - 2 pieces of software which could be installed on a hosting server and that work with a great number of widespread scripting languages like: Perl, Python and PHP. That way, you can use images with any web-based app you'd like, regardless of the language it was created with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will permit you to work with over a hundred different image formats including GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so on.
ImageMagick and GD Library in Shared Website Hosting
Our tailor-made cloud server platform will provide the optimal software environment for all your sites regardless of the content that you'd like to have. Galleries as well as all other kinds of sites that use images and graphs are not an exception as ImageMagick and GD Library are available with all the shared website hosting plans that we offer. Your account will be set up on our cloud website hosting platform and regardless of which PHP version you wish to use (4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5), both the libraries will be enabled as standard, not on demand. If the script application that you employ offers such capabilities, you could manage images from the administrative section, while your website visitors shall be able to do this using the front end of your site.
ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Servers
As both GD Library and ImageMagick are set up on the cloud hosting platform where all the semi-dedicated server accounts are created, you will not have any problems to run any kind of script app that requires these libraries in order to work effectively. Lots of applications allow you to use charts and pictures - discussion boards, cms, blog platforms, and many others, therefore if you work with such software on our end, you are able to use all of its functions - automatically generated thumbnails for images linked to a forum reply or easy to customize avatars on a social network site, for example. Both libraries are provided with all the PHP versions that you're able to select through the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel - 4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5.
