Abstract: An integrated interface is disclosed which facilitates combining digital images and instructions for modifying those images. This information can be electronically transmitted over a network to a remote Editor or Artist capable of modifying the image in accordance with the instructions. In one version, the interface includes relatively sophisticated marking tools which allow the image holder to input very accurate and detailed image manipulation instructions. An alternative interface is disclosed which is less complex and directed to the consumer market. A system is also disclosed for pricing the image modifications and for selecting and routing the work to various Editors in remote locations.
