I've done similar tests with Photoshop's older Bicubic algorithm and the
newer algorithms in CS. I didn't see anything either GF or PPS brought to
the table other than agonizingly slow processing of images. If anyone wants
to do a test, be sure to use both these 3rd party products AND Photoshop and
output the files (or sections of a high rez file) and view the output. On
screen viewing isn't going to cut it. I've seen in best case, tiny
advantages with GF but at anything other than putting the print an inch from
your eye, you'd never see it at viewing distances. Photoshop always
processed the data at blazingly fast speeds compared to these other products
and in many cases, the new Bicubic algorithm (smoother for upsizing) did a
better job.
