I would suggest to submit the "filtered" bitmap as well. It's not only the
algorithm what is tested here but the user and so one might learn from the
filtering effect used by other people.

And no limits! I think that any limit in size or even form makes no sense 
here. I _would_ do a drawing of the motive but to try a technical copy of
the bitmap is definately too boring.

people join in. I am definately very much interested in the result of 
that contest.
