If you would want to have dynamic images on your internet site, the web server where you host it needs to have the correct software for that. Instead of using static images with a fixed size, you could have thumbnails and automatically resized images based on the device a visitor uses or you can even flip and invert images using a script app. All of these things are doable with ImageMagick and GD library - 2 pieces of software that may be installed on a hosting server and that work with a lot of widely used scripting languages like: Perl, Python and PHP. Thus, you could use images with any web-based app you want, regardless of the language it was developed with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The two libraries will enable you to work with more than one hundred different image formats such as GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etcetera.
