If you would want to have dynamic images on your website, the web server in which you host it should have the correct software for that. As an alternative to using static images with a fixed size, you may have thumbnails and automatically resized images dependant upon the device a website visitor uses or you can even flip and invert images via a script application. All of these things are feasible with ImageMagick and GD library - 2 pieces of software that could be installed on a hosting server and that work with a large amount of frequently used scripting languages including: Perl, Python and PHP. This way, you may use images with any web-based application that you'd like, regardless of the language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The 2 libraries will enable you to work with more than 100 different image formats like GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so forth.
ImageMagick and GD Library in Shared Website Hosting
All the Linux shared website hosting packages which we offer are generated on our hi-tech cloud platform and since both GD Library and ImageMagick are installed on it, your script apps will be able to use these software suites at any time. The libraries are accessible with all of the PHP versions that we offer as we support PHP 4 and a few different versions of PHP 5. Regardless if you work with a custom-made script, one of the applications that you'll be able to install through the Hepsia Control Panel or some third-party app that you find on the web, you will be able to build feature-rich multimedia sites, such as image galleries or socially-oriented portals where both you and your users can work with graphs and images in real time provided the script offers such options.
ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Hosting
As both GD Library and ImageMagick are set up on the cloud hosting platform where all the semi-dedicated server accounts are created, you won't experience any problems to run any sort of script app that needs these libraries in order to operate properly. Many apps allow you to use graphs and pictures - message boards, cms, blog platforms, etcetera, therefore when you employ such software on our end, you will be able to use all of its options - automatically generated thumbnails for images linked to a forum reply or customizable avatars on a social network website, for example. The two libraries will be provided with all of the PHP releases that you will be able to select through the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel - 4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5.
