Image Resizing

I've been developing a CMS for quite some time now and have a fairly acceptable gallery. What annoys me though is the really bad results I get from image resiziing (I use the GD lib for PHP). Will ImageMagick do a better Job than GD?

I was also wondering about Jpeg2000. I actually have worked on image storage using techniques similar to Jpeg2000 and I just love the format. I sadly havent seen much support for it though. I noticed ImageMagick provides support and thats a great thing, the question is: Is there any way to make the format display cross-browser?

Yes it will! According to one source IM does better that even photoshop, though it sill recommended the addition of some extra post resize sharpening of the result.

I myself like to use -unsharp 0x.5 to make it slightly sharper.
