When using add_image_size with over 15 sizes when no image would use all of
them is when it seems not ideal, especially when needing to change those
sizes after they have been uploaded. The Dynamic Image Resizer by Otto might
help in that type of situation. Though there doesn't seem to be a clear way
to delete resize images without using bash. I find the image_resize, with
conditional, and the plugin WP Image Resizer by Frank, to be preferable and
flexible, and would have cleaner code. Since the parameters of the image
would be in the same place that the image is being used, as usually
add_image_size is used someplace else, such as functions.php or another
initiation point.

I'm in need for image resizing from JavaScript, which could be probably
handled with a series of predefined increments set in PHP, so as to not have
too many options resources exposed. Having every size available is
refreshing, though.
