Add a clean border or frame around an image online. A border sets a photo off from the page, ties a set of images together with a consistent frame, or adds a simple decorative edge — in any colour and thickness you choose.
Border or padding?
A border draws a coloured edge at the image’s existing boundary, in the thickness and colour you choose. If instead you want to add space around the whole image without cropping — for example to fit a square frame — the add-padding tool does that. Pick a border for a decorative or defining edge.
Consistent frames across a set

Does a border change the image size?
A border can be drawn inside the existing edges, or added as extra space. If you want space added around the whole image without cropping, the padding tool does exactly that.
What colours can the border be?
Any colour you choose, at the thickness you set.
