I like ultra sharpen lite for a freeware one that works good. The pro
version is cool and it's only $15.

Try the 'Extensis' line of products and the 'nik Color Efex Pro.' I find
them both very useful.

It depends on what you want to do.

The two I use most often a

Kodak's Digital GEM Airbrush plugin does an excellent job of
'beautifying' faces in just a few clicks:

nik Sharpener Pro, which sharpens the image based on your destination
print dimensions and capability:

My advice would be to spend any time you waste hunting for plugins
learning layers, masks, channels, graduations, and the curves tool
first.

Yes you need to know the PS basics but if you want consistent results
reasonably quickly then using filters is far more effective. It's not
necessary to hunt for long - just search for NIK. These filters
simulate various monochrome film types and simulate lens filters
e.g. graduated filters, polarisers etc. Its also possible to 'pep up'
dull landscapes by use of the sunlight filters. Some of these effects
are hard to apply and very time consuming when using the PS controls.
