ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that need to be present on a server for images to appear on a certain site. They allow you to carry out a variety of tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so forth. These things can be performed online and in real time, so if you add a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to show up on the website or for the image to be resized automatically based on the device and resolution that the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be used with many web programming languages such as PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't need to stick to only one language to build your website. They work with over 100 formats, which includes the most frequently used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, etc.
