- '''ImageMagick Path (optional)''' - JomSocial by default uses GD2 for processing the images. If your server supports ImageMagick, you can enter the absolute path to it here.This information, however, must be obtained from the hosting provider. The advantages of using ImageMagick over GD2 is lower resource usage as well as the ability to support animated .gif images.
