ImageMagick and GD Library

Discover more about ImageMagick and GD Library and discover why they are currently present on almost every server.

ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a web server in order for images to appear on a certain site. They permit you to execute different tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things could be carried out online and in real time, so if you add a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to show up on the website or for the image to be resized automatically depending on the device and resolution the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be employed with a lot of web programming languages such as PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't have to stick to a single language to create your internet site. They work with more than 100 formats, which includes the most widely used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so on.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Every single semi-dedicated server plan that we offer is provided with ImageMagick and GD Library support by default. The libraries will be enabled at all times even if you switch the PHP version which is being used by your account, so you won't need to re-enable anything manually in case you move from PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8 to PHP 4 or vice versa. In case the script application that you use has inbuilt features to use pictures and graphs, it will function perfectly on our servers, regardless of whether you've acquired it online, if it's a part of the script library that you can access through the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel or if you created it on your own. When you use our services, you will be able to build multi-media image galleries, portfolio websites or feature-rich social network portals.
