Blizzard EU announces WWI08 fan art contest

They're asking for an exclusive piece of artwork from one of their Blizzard game franchises. They're asking that submissions be high definition JPG images, with a 1920x1200 resolution and no larger than 3 MB in size. I wear the world's largest dunce cap when it comes to this sort of art, so I am not sure if those are highly limiting requirements or not. Perhaps you can fill me in!
Registration is being done online, and it is taking place between June 6th and June 16th. Blizzard has posted the full rules on EU website, so you can head that way if you're in the mood for some legalese. They've also posted the prizes, which I've tucked behind the cut.
These prizes are listed on the EU page announcing the contest, so cash values are listed in Euros rather than US Dollars. If you want to do the conversion of value to USD, I believe it is currently roughly 1.6 USD for every Euro.

Kind of sucks that it's a WORLDWIDE invitational yet these contests are only open to certain European countries. :\
Ah well, I'll keep working on my piece in the hopes that they have a US version sometimes.

I would expect them to have similar contests for the Blizzcon 08, which will likely to open to US Residents only, so I think you'll have a chance to compete for fabulous prizes.

No, those size requirements are not difficult at all.
