If you would like to have dynamic images on your site, the machine where you host it must have the appropriate software for this. Instead of using static images with a fixed size, you may have thumbnails and automatically resized images depending on the device a website visitor uses or you may even flip and invert images via a script application. All these things are feasible with ImageMagick and GD library - 2 pieces of software that can be installed on a server and which work with a large amount of frequently used scripting languages like: Perl, Python and PHP. In this way, you may use images with any web-based application you want, no matter what language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will allow you to work with more than one hundred different image formats like GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etc.
