Love this! The fly overall seems a bit bright to me. Maybe if you darken the edges or one side slightly...it wouldn't look so uniform. It's a personal thing...not a deal breaker at all. I took a nice exhale when I saw this image...since it was different from the batch and uniquely altered and merged. Nice job, author!
EDIT: Looks awesome!

Thanks, Pixelkid...shaded the fly a bit and IMO it's better.
You really should have a Hi-res image, it's too hard too see the details at this size. You say you had trouble uploading and maybe it's not your fault but let's go through the steps. You probably should clear your cache first, then save a JPEG of your entry. That JPEG has to be a maximum 5 MB, no larger so use "image size" to reduce the resolution, making it as high a resolution as possible but still at or as close to 5MB as you can. Once you have that click on "Save full resolution image" and hit the "upload image" box. Just click one time and wait. It can take a little while to upload depending on image size and Internet speed. If you did it this way I don't know what the problem might be.
A lot of edges are pretty wonky. Looks like they were selected with the magic wand tool, not the pen or lasso. The idea is good, but technically lacking.

Thanks for advice. Have solved upload issues - some gremlins had changed the units of my resolution. Have also fixed up some jagged edges as far as time allows.
I really like image+text entries. A black-and-white tabloid newspaper front page is a fun idea. But using the Asian Kid contest as an inspiration for Yellow Journalism might be a little dubious. That aside, the largest baby's hair makes him look much older than his older sister (and I'm not sure where the hairy hand is coming from). I think "Back Page" and "Page 2" should come after the headline/description. I would use initial caps and commas differently, i.e, "Older Sister, Sick of Being Sat On in Front of Her Friends, Rebels. Slowly turning to a life of crime and butterscotch and loose-fitting clothes."

The greenish look of the image, really helps the kid and background to go together. Good luck.....!
