ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a hosting server for images to appear on a specific website. They allow you to perform different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so on. These things can easily be carried out online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the internet site or for the image to be resized automatically with regards to the device and resolution the visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be used with many different web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't need to stick to one particular language to develop your website. They work with more than a hundred formats, which includes the most widely used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, etc.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Shared Hosting

Both ImageMagick and GD Library are available and enabled as standard on our revolutionary cloud hosting platform, which means that your scripts can use them regardless of the shared plan that you select when you register. This will allow you to create multimedia sites without worrying about any technical limitations on our end. In case you have a portfolio website, for instance, you can have dynamically generated thumbnails of the images that show your work, while if you have a social network or a similar website which engages the guests in some way, you'll be able to provide them with a number of editing options for the pictures they upload. You can also convert text to images, which provides you with many different opportunities with regards to what content you'll be able to offer on your site.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Servers

Since both GD Library and ImageMagick are installed on the cloud platform where all of the semi-dedicated server accounts are created, you will not have any problems to run any script app that needs these libraries in order to function properly. A number of apps allow you to use charts and pictures - discussion boards, content management systems, blog platforms, etc, which means that when you employ such software on our end, you're able to use all of its attributes - automatically generated thumbnails for images linked to a forum reply or customizable avatars on a social network site, for example. Both libraries are provided with all the PHP versions that you can select through the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel - 4, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2.
