ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that ought to be present on a server in order for images to show up on a certain site. They enable you to perform various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etcetera. These things could be done online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for instance, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to show up on the site or for the image to be resized automatically depending on the device and resolution that the visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be used with various web programming languages like PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't need to stick to just one language to create your site. They work with over 100 formats, which includes the most popular ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, and so forth.
