If you would like to have dynamic images on your internet site, the machine where you host it must have the suitable software for that. Instead of using static images with a fixed size, you may have thumbnails and automatically resized images dependant upon the device a visitor uses or you could even flip and invert images via a script application. All of these things are possible with ImageMagick and GD library - 2 pieces of software that may be set up on a server and that work with a lot of frequently used scripting languages such as: Perl, Python and PHP. In this way, you could 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 2 libraries will enable you to work with more than 100 different image formats including GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etcetera.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Cloud Web Hosting

All of the Linux cloud web hosting plans that we offer are created on our state-of-the-art cloud platform and since both GD Library and ImageMagick are present on it, your script apps can use these software suites any time. The libraries can be found with all PHP versions that we offer since we support PHP 4 and a couple of versions of PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8. No matter if you work with a custom script, one of the applications that you're able to install through the Hepsia Control Panel or some third-party application that you find on the web, you will be able to build feature-rich multi-media sites, for instance image galleries or socially-oriented portals where both you and your visitors will be able to work with graphs as well as images in real time provided the script features such options.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Servers

Each semi-dedicated server package that we offer comes with ImageMagick and GD Library support as standard. The libraries will be enabled at all times even if you upgrade the PHP version which is being used by your account, which means that you won't have to re-enable anything manually if you switch from PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8 to PHP 4 or vice versa. If the script app that you employ has in-built features to work with images and graphs, it will work flawlessly on our servers, regardless if you've obtained it online, if it's a part of the script library which you will be able to access from the Hepsia hosting Control Panel or if you wrote it on your own. With our services, you can generate interactive image galleries, portfolio websites or feature-rich social network portals.
