It seems pretty obvious to me, though, and the epub cover image looks much clearer and sharper. You seriously don't see any difference in the clarity between http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3646/...7f4958f8_o.jpg and http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3579/...a9f7819b_o.jpg ?
The two are not the same image. The first is for the first book; the second if for the trilogy combined. One image is clearly a variation of the other, but as for "downsampling" one image is necessarily smaller than the other to include the border designs and cover text.
