Logic: input, because you cannot predict in advance how big the output
image is supposed to be, right? Kausale Zusammenhänge. ;-)
But the help should probably really say "size of input data" instead of
"image size". cloop-compressed files can also be TAR-files or anything
else apart from ISO or filesystem images in general.

Uhm, well... I must admit that I prefer static linking in some cases
when the lib is only used for a single application, but in this case,
libz should be present on all systems, so dynamic linking would
probably be better here. Anyways, I would merge it with the Makefile of
cloop later.
