What do you mean by "columns"? Columns of pixels? How come they're columns -
are the faces square? When you say 200x200 and 175x200, are you talking
about pixels or POV-units?

I can't understand the problem as you're describing it.

If your problem is simply that you have a square (200x200 pixel) image and a
non-square subject within that image, then just change the image width
(+W175) and then modify the camera's "right" vector to go along with that.
But I can't tell if that's what you're saying...
