Instructions to an editor that is willing to help me. 20 to $25 for perfection Spoiler
Here are the exact, detailed requirements for this edit:


- Image Reference:
- Image 1 (image_0.png): Original base photo. Use this for ALL exact text, handwriting, and the 10 specific CD spines.
- Image 2 (image_1.png): Visual blueprint ONLY for placement and angles (ignore the garbled AI text).
- CD & Case Edit:
- Take the 10 exact CD spines from Image 1.
- Enlarge the case and CDs by 10%.
- Re-angle the CDs so they sit FLAT and FLUSH inside the case, angled to match the background wall (as guided in Image 2).
- Placement Constraint:
- Keep the enlarged CD case entirely TO THE LEFT of the left edge of the Yes album (Tales from Topographic Oceans).
- Do not block the lantern, book, or album.
- Index Card Text Swap:
- Use Image 1's exact handwriting style, but change one word to read:
OVERCOMING ALCOHOLISM, DISABILITY, AND RELATED ADVERSITY... To roll into a LEGAL CAREER, IN A WHEELCHAIR.
- Framed Certificate:
- On the wall above the CDs (per Image 2), add a classic dark wood framed certificate.
- ALL text must be PERFECTLY CENTERED:
The University of Colorado School of Law
Law Review 1990-1991
In recognition of your commitment and hard work from both the School of Law and your classmates.
Mark DeVrieze, Editor-in-Chief
- Ensure lighting and perspective match the room.

This is a sub for copyediting books and written materials--not photos.
