As opposed to using static images with a fixed size, you can have thumbnails and automatically resized images dependant upon the device a site visitor uses or you can even flip and invert images using a script application. All these things are possible through ImageMagick and GD library - 2 pieces of software which could be set up on a hosting server and which work with a lot of frequently used scripting languages such as: Perl, Python and PHP. Thus, you could use images with any web-based app you'd like, no matter what language it was created with - a custom-made Perl script or a PHP one. The 2 libraries will enable you to work with more than 100 different image formats including GIF, PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and so on.
