Its not clear that you could even resize a CC-ND

I don't see why you wouldn't be allowed to resize using standard html
commands. There's no permanence to the image created, so it's not a
derivative work. What would be the fixed "size" of the image anyway?
Numbers measured in pixels? I'd say there's no way such a resizing
would be protected.
Just a point ... there's no such thing as "html commands".

So maybe it's a matter of balance. If CC-ND were
allowed, how many
additional images would be available? How much more free access to
the sum of all human knowledge would be given? Maybe the best way to
answer the question would be to run an experiment. Temporarily allow
such images for a month or so.
There's a certain feeling in the air ... the people are whispering ...
it's Wikipedia Experiment Season again!
