ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that ought to be present on a hosting server for images to appear on a particular website. They enable you to carry out a variety of tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, etc. These things could be carried out online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the internet site or for the image to be resized automatically based on the device and resolution the visitor is using. Both ImageMagick and GD can be employed with lots of web programming languages such as PHP, Perl and Python, so you don't have to stick to a single language to develop your site. They work with over one hundred formats, including the most frequently used ones - JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG, etc.

This will help you set up multimedia websites without worrying about any technical limitations on our end.

Also, you can convert text to pictures, that provides you with many different opportunities as to what content you'll be able to offer on the site.

ImageMagick and GD Library in Semi-dedicated Servers

Each semi-dedicated server package that we offer is provided with ImageMagick and GD Library support as standard. The libraries will be enabled at all times even if you switch the PHP version that is in use by your account, so you will not 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 application that you employ has in-built options to use images and graphs, it will work perfectly on our servers, regardless of whether you've discovered it online, if it is part of the script library that you'll be able to access using the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel or if you created it from scratch. With our services, you are able to make multimedia image galleries, portfolio websites or feature-rich social network portals.
