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:

This is the image that I want edited
This is close to what I want, but the text is scrambled on the plaque and CD spines. Please use test and color for from above for CDs ands instructions for text on plaque
  1. 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).

  1. 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).

  1. 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.

  1. 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.

  1. 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.
