How about letting people submit a resolution suitable for web consumption plus
an info at which maximum resolution the image is available, if the original
content is pixel based? Vector content would be marked respectively, so would
content from which a pixel format can be generated at any resolution (but which
isn't vector content).
For pixel content a minimum available resolution to enter the contest should
probably be defined.
