Best way to manage images
For my users, being able to upload a single file, and letting the server crop, center and place the appropriate thumbnails where they need to go, based on their content type was essential.
This is a stellar module. In terms of documentation, watching the screencast linked in the documentation was most helpful.
My only gripe is I can't add and image or edit more than one node at the same time. I've had images skip to different nodes(!)

The only game in town
As far as I can tell, image cache is the only module that does what it does: resizing and/or cropping images to a preset aspect ratio for showing on various locations throughout your Drupal website. In that, it's a module you can't miss. It has some serious downsides as well...
You add presets through the configuration panel which are than available as options for View fields and Content type fields. Copies of the original images are made on the file system following the properties of your presets. These copies are made only once and this is done at the time of the first viewing of the image.
Adding actions to presets (ie. Crop) can be a bit confusing. Also the JPG quality can't be adjusted (not out of hand anyway). The reliability has left me in a lurch from time to time which is the biggest downer for this one. The module seems to create directories which in a multi-site setup posed several problems with ownership and access rights. Also I got some weird errors when only one value is set for either resizing or cropping (which is part of the features).
When those issues are taken into account and improved, this one could remain at the top of its foodchain for quite a bit.

Very powerful
especially when imagecache is combined with cck, imagefield, and views. If you want to build flickr in Drupal this is a painless way to go.

A handy image manipulation tool
Certainly not considered a superstar module, but it's one of the tools you love to use and then not think about.
Once you have the hang of it is great tool to have, take the same image and display it in various locations with different sizes and cropping. So rather than having the browser do a bad job at resizing your image actually turns out looking good.

Excellent Project!
I am quite impressed with imagecache. It is easy to integrate, plays nicely with other modules.
This is by far the best image processing solution available to Drupal that I know of - use this whenever you need to automatically resize or otherwise improve images uploaded to your site!

Handy module
This module came in handy when I needed to automatically resize images for article teasers. If you're looking for a simple way to display images in multiple sizes, this is the module I recommend.
Check the "read documentation" link above for a nice screencast showing how to use the module.
