StuckSophie Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Hi, Can anyone explain to me how to put a simple border (one colour) around a picture? For example, a blue border around this? Thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Just increase your canvas size by two times however many pixels you want your border to be, making sure that it's set to center...use the bucket fill to fill the outline in, and you're good! Does that help? Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos.

StuckSophie Posted July 10, 2007 Author Share Posted July 10, 2007 errr kind of :oops: can you explain it in a little more 'woman' friendly :oops: :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkbark00 Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Do you want the border to add to the size of the image(e.g., 80x80px + 5px border = 85x85px). If so you can just set your background color to your desired border color, and then increase the canvas size to add your border. To change the canvas size you want to go to Image > Canvas Size... There are also 2 plugins that add a border to your image... http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=4799 http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=4828 Quote Take responsibility for your own intelligence. 😉 -Rick Brewster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david.atwell Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 For the record, I'm 115% man. I take up some slack for some of those 85%ers.
