If you would like to have dynamic images on your internet site, the server where you host it needs to have the appropriate software for this. As an alternative to using static images with a fixed size, you can have thumbnails and automatically resized images dependant upon the device a website visitor uses or you could even flip and invert images using a script application. All these things are doable through ImageMagick and GD library - 2 pieces of software that may be set up on a server and that work with a great number of popular scripting languages such as: Perl, Python and PHP. This way, you can use images with any web-based app you'd like, irrespective of the language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The 2 libraries shall allow you to work with more than 100 different image formats including GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so forth.
