Borders

[Lolabelle]

OK all you professionals, how do I get a border around some of my photo's. They look so good in the ones I have seen on here, but have no idea how to put them on!!!!
Help, please

What program are you using Lolabelle??

If your using photoshop, choose a colour first (probably black or white), go to the "Image" drop down menu, select "Canvas Size" and increase the size to create the border (make sure to select "canvas extension colour" = foreground).

This is all rather unintuative and laborious for me so I use a program called Coreldraw (which is a vector program). Much easier to add pinstripes, text logos etc (then export as a bitmap - or any other format required).

Hope this is reasobably clear!!

I don't have any software beyond the generic stuff that came with my camera, but I am in the process of downloading a trial version of Photoshop Elements.
But I think I have coreldraw somewhere, it came with my computer, I think
