		| | I have 3 beautifully related photos to put together for the multi image challenge when at the size of 2850 x 850 all three photos are in sharp focus and look really well together.  After I resized them down to 636 x 189, my center photo was somewhat distorted.  I have tried putting the images together different ways but always the one in the center ends up looking that way.  Anyone else noticing any distortion when resizing for this challenge? |

		| | try a slightly different size?  I'm not sure what can be done about that, especially 40 mins before deadline.

		| | Dont know if this will help any, but resizing to 636 x 189 is creating an uneven number for your verticle axis (sometimes the software may have trouble doing this, and thus distort your image), whereas your original is 2850 x 850.  Try resizing so that the verticle axis is an even number.  Also try doing a sharpen on the image AFTER resizing...  The process of resizing will usually impact on the sharpness of your image. 
 I would also suggest putting the border in the image before resizing, then just resize down to 640 x ???, then do your sharpen.
 
 Give it a try.  Hope you get to finish it in time!
