Problem making objects with OC and inserting them

I am trying to make a simple floor in the shape of a rectangle.
I am trying to make it so that I don't have to mess with the scale of the object when i insert it into the editor(NL).
So, I built a rectangle, inserted and found that it was a bit too 'short'. I then lengthened it but when I inserted this new object, the width had 'shrunk'.
Here is a screenshot of what I mean. Object one on the left, and then the one on the right is the one I tried to lengthen, only to have the width get smaller.

Also, one of my textures is showing up wierd in the simulator. At most angle it shows up as a yellow haze and the actual texture is only visible at certain angles. And the part that does look like the actual texture is blurry.....

Any help?

nevermind, got them both solved

well I think the bluring one was because you had overlapping brushes.

And low res textures look blurry because of the texture filtering.

Do make efforts to prevent overlapping brushes, it looks just terrible. And be sure to optimize.
