Arthurbruffett Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I'd like to add a simple black border around my photos, but as of yet cannot figure out how to do it. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 There is a border plugin you can use: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4799&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=border I prefer bevel instead, found here ==>http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6526&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=bevel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bEPIK Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Also if you don't want to affect any of the original photo you can change your secondary colour to black (by pressing 'x' on your keyboard), go to image>canvas size..., Uncheck the 'Maintain aspect ratio' box, think how large you want your border to be and double the number you think of, then under the subheading 'Pixel size' and add that doubled number to both 'Width' and 'Height', make sure the 'anchor' is set to middle click OK. It sounds tricky but it takes 10 seconds to do. However, if you don't mind about losing those outside pixels, the border plugin that Curmudgeon was talking about is the best (and the quickest) option.
