If you want to have dynamic images on your internet site, the web server in which you host it must have the correct software for this. Instead of using static images with a fixed size, you may have thumbnails and automatically resized images dependant upon the device a website visitor uses or you could even flip and invert images through a script app. All these things are doable through ImageMagick and GD library - 2 pieces of software that may be set up on a hosting server and that work with a large amount of widely used scripting languages such as: Perl, Python and PHP. This way, you may use images with any web-based app you want, irrespective of the language it was created with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The 2 libraries shall allow you to work with more than a hundred different image formats like GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etcetera.
