I'm using Photoshop Elements 6 and can not for the life of me figure out how to make a border for my photographs. Any help would be great. Thanks
There are a bunch of different ways to do this but I will go into two of them.
First one using the rectanglar (sp) marquee tool draw around the image where you want the border, then go to select>inverse
next edit> fill selection, pick a color you want the border to be
On this one I would first do a Layer via copy of the selection (after you do the inverse) and that way you can play with the colors, styles etc
another way is to add a stroke around the picture
edit>stroke....just pick a size and color
again you can do this on its own layer by doing this (best way to go)
duplicate layer
add blank layer above this one
Ctrl click on the duplicate layer (marching ants)
now highlight the blank layer and do the edit stroke ...make sure the inside box is checked
