Hi. Which of the Photo Uploader do you recommend to use? GD Library or ImageMagick? What the difference for EasySocial 4? Thanks.

Hi. If I understand correct, ImageMagick generate (create) files with bigger size?

Yes.


Anyway site will generate thumbs, big thumb and keep original file?

Yes


If site not about photography and current photos quality (created by GD Library) is enough to me, so it’s better continue to use GD Library?

It really depends on the usage of your site. We only provide customers with the options.

There are pros and cons to both. However if your host supports Imagemagick, I would stick with Imagemagick. Imagemagick generally uses larger file size because of the quality of the resized / processed photos.

I read article and didn’t found reason to change GD Library to Image Magic https://www.sitepoint.com/imagick-vs-gd/

Please advise. Thanks.
