If you would want to have dynamic images on your site, the machine where you host it must have the suitable software for this. Rather than using static images with a fixed size, you can have thumbnails and automatically resized images in accordance with the device a visitor uses or you can even flip and invert images via a script app. All these things are feasible with ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software which could be installed on a server and that work with a large amount of popular scripting languages including: Perl, Python and PHP. This way, you may use images with any web-based app you want, no matter what language it was created with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will enable you to work with more than a hundred different image formats including GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etc.
