Image resizing is an important part of image processing work. There is a huge array of different methods with different benefits and sometimes abhorrent artifacts.  I'm new to Photoshop but I'm impressed with the wide array of enlargement plugins available.  A few enlargement plugins have been mentioned in these lists but I suspect that there's not a single solution that works best for every image.

I'd love to hear about your favorite resize option (preferably with the method it uses); how it works best for you and when the results leave something to be desired.  I'm really after the best image quality rather than the cheapest or easiest to use.

This is my draft list from a little searching:

• Photoshop built-in
• Alien Skin Blow up (Vector based)
• ON1 Resize (Fractal based)
• PhotoZoom Pro (S-Spline based)

Thanks for your help in navigating this.
