I think the best solution is to use a 4GB ( as in 4,000,000,000 bytes)  base image that will automatically resize the data partition to fill the rest of the card during the first boot procedures. This offers the least amount of hassle to end users and developers alike.

That is exactly what the phoenixcard image does. Unfortunately the phoenixcard software is very unstable

Then why doesn't someone release an image that mimics what the phoenixcard image does, but instead is meant to be used with Win32 Disk Imager. All it really takes is a disk image from a 4gb card since most users will have 8gb or larger memory cards.
