- A white border helps a photo stand out on a coloured page.
- Outside borders make the file larger in pixels. Inside borders keep the original dimensions.
- Use a width proportional to the picture. About 2 percent of the width looks balanced.
Questions
What is the difference between inside and outside?
Outside adds new pixels around the picture. Inside paints over the outer edge, so the size stays the same and a thin strip of the picture is covered.
Can I make a rounded border?
No, only a straight frame.
Can I use a gradient?
No, only a single solid colour.
