I'm interested in doing a non-destructive "resize" of an image, whereby only the transparent pixels are traditionally resized and the non-transparent pixels remain the same size (but move relative to the resized transparent pixels).
As an example, imagine an image that consists of stars on a transparent background. If we were to do the above to this image, the physical space taken up by the image would increase (due to the resizing of the transparent pixels), but the stars themselves would remain the same size. In short, the stars would appear to spread out to fill more space.

Hey Cragganmore,
You can resize the transparent pixels by using the Canvas Size command under the Image menu, but this won't resize other layers, or content on the same layer, relative to the canvas size adjustment. I can't think of any way to achieve that dynamically inside Photoshop I'm afraid! _________________ Matt
