ImageMagick and GD are software libraries which should be present on a hosting server for images to appear on a specific website. They permit you to carry out various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so forth. These things can certainly be performed 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 site or for the image to be resized automatically depending upon the device and resolution the website visitor is using.
