Default Build a poster for a poster - cash payment!

Description

I am coming to the end of a course and i would like to do a poster of the instructors and my fellow classmates - this isn't to help me pass/fail the course, it's meant to be a general funny.

However, although i have the design i want in mind, having played about with the idea for a few weeks online and in various progs, i find i am absolutely rubbish at getting my idea into a printable format (I am looking having it printed in room poster size; A3 or bigger).


My theme is a US style yearbook:

dark background
name of my course at the top and dates
Picture of lead instructor - with space for a quote
Picture of 2nd lead instructor - with space for a quote
Picture of 4 x instructor - with space for a quote

Pictures of 12 students with space for a quotes

Underneath all that - a few quotes people have come out with

at the bottom 3 x pictures i have made

various places throughout the poster some other pics i have made.


Time Frame
As soon as possible (certainly within a week - deadline)

Payment
The designer would email me a watermarked sample of the work. When it's completed to my satisfaction (perhaps after further revisions I request), I would send payment via Paypal. After receiving payment, the designer would send me the finished work.

The price (£10) is based on the amount of money I'm willing to pay to not have to do this work myself. But, if the designer can provide some objective data—such as links to similar and completed job listings—showing that this work is normally priced higher, I'd be willing to reconsider what a fair price would be.

Purpose and Credit
I have paid for the license to use a larger version of this stock image, and it may not be used or reproduced elsewhere in any form.

---------

And that's about it - anybody want to have a go at this? Getting the resolutions right, correct spacings etc, i am such a noob with this type of thing!

I could afford about £10 (GBP) (paypal gift) if anybody is up for it! If someone is up for it, please let me know and i will email the photos in trust to them.

I don't think you're going to get many replies to this one I'm afraid!

You might find some GCSE students willing to do it for that price, I very much doubt you'll find anyone else.

Look at putting AT LEAST another zero on the end before you even get a reply.

£10! What an insult (unless this is a joke and in the wrong section).

I actually got the work done for £20 from another poster on another site. The 'other' site had a lot more friendly people who were helpful and advised me accordingly seeing as though i had no idea the amount of work and time that went into something i saw as a simple request.

But thanks for your comments, you've just shown to me that i won't be returning to your site again.

Mods - please close/delete the thread - job done!
