ImageMagick and GD are software libraries that ought to be present on a web server for images to appear on a given site. They allow you to perform various tasks with the images - create, flip, resize, change colors, and so forth. These things can certainly be carried out online and in real time, so if you include a static image, for example, the libraries make it possible for a thumbnail to appear on the site or for the image to be resized automatically based on the device and resolution which the website visitor is using.
