John, If you want to resize the background layer without affecting other layers, I think you won't find a software package that does that. To resize all layers, though:
Image -> Scale image To resize only the background, the best you can do, I think is to paste background layer in another image, and use the option above to scale that. Then paste it back into the original image, and remove the original background layer (if you don't need it anymore).
