If you want to have dynamic images on your internet site, the server in which you host it should have the appropriate software for that. As opposed to using static images with a fixed size, you may have thumbnails and automatically resized images in accordance with the device a visitor uses or you could even flip and invert images via a script app. All these things are possible via ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software which could be set up on a hosting server and that work with a lot of popular scripting languages including: Perl, Python and PHP. That way, you can use images with any web-based application you'd like, regardless of the language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will allow you to work with over one hundred different image formats like GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so on.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Cloud Web Hosting

Both ImageMagick and GD Library are available and activated as standard on our innovative cloud website hosting platform, so your scripts will be able to use them irrespective of the cloud web hosting that you select when you register. This will help you set up interactive websites without having to worry about any sort of technical limitations on our end. If you own a portfolio site, for instance, you can have dynamically generated thumbnails of the pictures that show your work, while when you've got a social network or a similar site that engages the guests in some way, you can provide them with a variety of editing solutions for the photos which they upload. You can also convert text to images, that will give you a number of opportunities with regards to what content you're able to offer on your site.

In case the script app that you use has inbuilt options to use pictures and graphs, it'll work flawlessly on our servers, no matter if you've obtained it online, if it's part of the script library which you are able to access using the Hepsia website hosting Control Panel or if you wrote it on your own.
