  This is one of the reasons why I strongly think that the only
allowable post-processing should be conversion to jpeg, nothing else.

  Having rules of type "you are allowed to do this, but don't overabuse
it" leaves room for controversy.

  (And naturally since brightness/contrast adjustment as well as image
resizing can be used to greatly enhance the visual quality of the image,
something which the renderer itself was perhaps uncapable of doing, this
strongly contradicts the spirit of the competition.)
