Ignite gallery can use the default graphics library that comes with PHP (GD Library), or it can use the "Image Magick" library. Image Magick is not installed with PHP by default, it is a separate package that may be installed on your server. The advantages of using Image Magick is the ability to resize animated PNGs, and better access to server memory.
To enable Image Magick, please go to your webhosting control panel, and enable the extension:
**Your webhosting may not have Image Magick as an option, please see your web hosting documentation.
Then in the Ignite Gallery component, choose Image Magick:
To test if Image Magick is active, please upload an animated PNG image. If the image is resized correctly into a thumbnail (with the animation working), then Image Magick is working correctly. If Image Magick is not enabled, the gallery component will choose the PHP GD library to resize the image.
