ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that need to be present on a web server for images to show up on a specific website. They enable you to perform various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things can be carried out online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for instance, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the site or for the image to be resized automatically depending on the device and resolution which the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD may be used with a lot of web programming languages such as PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not need to stick to only one language to build your site. They work with more than one hundred formats, which includes the most widespread ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Hosting

All Linux hosting which we supply are created on our hi-tech cloud platform and due to the fact that both GD Library and ImageMagick are present on it, your script applications can use these software suites at any time. The libraries are available with all of the PHP versions that we provide since we support PHP 4 and a number of versions of PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. Regardless if you employ a custom-made script, one of the apps that you're able to install through the Hepsia Control Panel or some third-party application that you find online, you will be able to build feature-rich multi-media sites, such as image galleries or socially-oriented portals where both you and your visitors can work with charts as well as images in real time as long as the script has such functionality.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Each semi-dedicated server package that we provide comes with ImageMagick and GD Library support by default. The libraries will be enabled all the time even if you upgrade the PHP version which is in use by your account, which means that you won't have to re-enable anything manually if you move from PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8 to PHP 4 or vice versa. Provided the script application which you use has in-built options to work with images and graphs, it will work perfectly on our servers, no matter if you've discovered it online, if it's a part of the script library which you can access from the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel or if you wrote it from scratch. When you use our services, you can build interactive image galleries, portfolio sites or feature-rich social network portals.
