Should I have my rack like this or stick to normal 3 row, 3 ribbon rack?

Rule of thumb, and I believe it is also in the book, at the row where the lapel covers 50% or more of a ribbon when worn, then you start aligning to the side, starting with the one that would have been 50% covered.

From what I can see thru the plastic bag - ribbon alignment to the left of the wearer is uneven.
Asking Rally Point’s opinion is a good step. Giving RP a decent photo to view would be another good step.
Indeed, you need assistance.

As someone with about the same rack and a pair of senior space wings myself, I feel your pain. It looks like 3x3 would work (I agree with the 50% rule of thumb). Or perhaps exercise the rarely seen 4 wide option, then right justify and it'll bring your space badge down a bit so they are less obscured. I will admit a bit of hypocrisy though. The last big board I made up my ASUs for (other than sponsoring) I asked a former Old Guard guy who set up the SMA's uniform for the DA photo we see everyday. He advised 3 across, centered and spaced to give every bit of the prominence to the ribbons (even though I had so few). Good luck with whichever way you go!

If the first ribbon on the second row is covered, what you have is fine. However, if you decide to go the 3 rack/ribbon route, ensure your ARCOM ribbon is centered. Check out my ribbons on my profile picture, I got the rack that had everything shifted because my lapels.
