If you would like to have dynamic images on your internet site, the server where you host it should have the correct software for this. As an alternative to using static images with a fixed size, you can have thumbnails and automatically resized images depending on the device a visitor uses or you may even flip and invert images using a script application. All these things are doable through ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software that could be installed on a web server and which work with a lot of popular scripting languages including: Perl, Python and PHP. In this way, you may use images with any web-based application that you would like, no matter what 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 including GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etcetera.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Servers
