ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that need to be present on a server to enable images to appear on a particular website. They enable you to carry out various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things can easily 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 upon the device and resolution which the website visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be employed with many different web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you do not have to stick to only one language to develop your internet site. They work with more than a hundred formats, including the most frequently used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, etc.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Web Hosting

All Linux web hosting packages which we provide are created on our advanced cloud platform and due to the fact that both GD Library and ImageMagick are installed on it, your script applications can use these software suites at any time. The libraries are available with all PHP versions that we provide since we support PHP 4 and a few different versions of PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. Regardless if you employ a tailor-made script, one of the apps which you're able to install through the Hepsia Control Panel or a third-party app that you find online, you are able to build feature-rich multi-media websites, for instance image galleries or socially-oriented portals where both you and the visitors will be able to work with charts and / or images in real time provided the script features such options.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Every single semi-dedicated server plan that we provide features ImageMagick and GD Library support as standard. The libraries will be enabled at all times even if you change the PHP version that is in use by your account, which means that you will not have to re-enable anything manually in case you switch from PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8 to PHP 4 or vice versa. In case the script app which you employ has built-in options to use pictures and charts, it will work perfectly on our servers, regardless if you've obtained it online, if it is part of the script library that you'll be able to access through the Hepsia hosting Control Panel or if you created it from scratch. When you use our services, you'll be able to generate interactive image galleries, portfolio sites or feature-rich social network portals.
