Enhance images by surrounding an image with a colored border. Borders can be asymmetrical, or symmetrical, and you can add multiple borders of different colors to an image.
To add a border to an image:
On the Browse tab, click the album to display thumbnail views of the images in the album in the Album View window.
In the Album View window, double-click an image to open it in the Image View window.
Choose Effects > Add Border to open the Add Borders dialog.
In the Border Size group box:
Mark the Symmetric check box if you want all sides of the border to be the same width.
Enter the pixel width for the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the border.
Click the Color box, or click the Pick Color button to open the Color dialog. Click a color, and then click OK.
To create a custom color, click the Define Custom Colors button to display the color wheel, and then:
Click a color from the color wheel, and then drag the slider up or down to create a custom color.
Click the Add to Custom Colors button, and then click OK.
Note: The colors that you select are “remembered” by the program and displayed the next time you use the Color dialog.
On the Add Borders dialog, click OK to apply the border to the image.
Save the image with a new file name.
If you want to retain the original image, save the image containing the border with a new file name. For information about saving an image with a new name, see Saving Images.
