You could warn the user and offer and interactive choice to:
(a) start from scratch, overwriting the file.
(b) start from scratch, renaming the previous file.
(c) continue using the original file's resolution and color depth.
(d) abort the render.
Or maybe, if and interactive choice is not a good idea, have these behaviours be
part of an .ini setting.
