If you have CS or higher version of PhotoShop, will be under the "Layer" pull downs as: 'Group into Smart Object'......... Then use the 'transform' hot key / or 'transform' pull down under the "Edit" heading. Then when finished resizing (up or down), convert the vectorized Smart Object back into a 'raster' graphic. Just changes rasters into vectors & then back again.............. other ways to do in PS I'm sure, but that's a qwik way I use that won't pixelate your enlargements like blowing up a raster image.........

I didn't know about that either, but FWIW it's mentioned in step 7 of "Retouch with the Clone Stamp tool" in http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-760aa.html But having thought about it, I think the OP should shrink the rest of the image rather than enlarging an area, thus avoiding undesired artefacts in the now relatively enlarged area, seeing as that's probably the area of interest.

LOL - it's there. Adobe offers a free 30 day trial so you can take it for a spin. The clone tool enhancement is not the biggest addition to CS4, but certainly one that is extensive relative to the number of people who have tried it out. -- Mike Russell - http://www.curvemeister.com
