If you would like to have dynamic images on your website, the server where you host it needs to have the correct software for that. Rather than using static images with a fixed size, you can have thumbnails and automatically resized images in accordance with the device a site visitor uses or you may even flip and invert images through a script application. All of these things are feasible via ImageMagick and GD library - two pieces of software which may be set up on a server and which work with a large amount of popular scripting languages such as: Perl, Python and PHP. That way, you could use images with any web-based application that you'd like, no matter what language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will allow you to work with over one hundred different image formats like GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so on.

No matter if you work with a tailor-made script, one of the apps which you're able to install through the Hepsia Control Panel or some third-party app that you find online, you will be able to build feature-rich multi-media websites, for instance image galleries or socially-oriented portals where both you and your users can work with charts as well as images in real time provided that the script has such options.
