Default custom card help?

Hi all-
My son has hitting lessons with a former minor league player in the A's/ Blue Jays system. He only played a couple seasons and had a few cards. One season (85 Huntsville A's) he was out the day they took the team picture and card set shots. He really missed that he doesn't have that, so I want to make a custom card (or should say have one made as I have not computer skills like that). The problem is that there aren't many good quality pics of him in that time frame, and the entire card set has each player posing in front of the Burger King sign as they sponsored the set.
Is there anyone/where I can send what pictures I have and what I want it to look like to see if they can come up with anything? He is such a great guy and I know this gift would mean the world to him.

If you can get a good enough picture, use the custom cards on topps website.

I think what he wants is a card of him to look like the 1985 Huntsville Stars set with the blue border and player posing in front of the Burger King sign.

This is what the set looks like

Since Canseco was on the Stars that year, I think mouschi would be interested. Definitely contact him.

This is the best I could do with the pics I found. If it is Rocky Coyle, it looks like he does have a 1986 Huntsville card.

Oh my gosh, that is so awesome!!!! That's exactly the player and card design i was wanting. . I wish there was a picture of him in a red jersey to match the rest of the team set but this is incredible!!!! Can you send me a file that I can save and print it to give him?
