Advertisement Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Hi Tenor1, Take a look here How Do You Add Frames Around Pictures . I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Bo_Lorentzen Posted January 2, 2009 Share #2 Posted January 2, 2009 Hello Carlos, The frames you see in some postings are added in photoshop using one of several frames packages (OR manually naturally) You need to add the frames before uploading to zenfolio.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenor1 Posted January 2, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted January 2, 2009 Thanks Bo, I'm learning Aperture and hope it can do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
abrewer Posted January 2, 2009 Share #4 Posted January 2, 2009 I make mine in CS3 by first putting a black stroke around the image, then placing a canvas of 100 pixels more than the image size in each dimension. I also type in my name and copyright with date. Like this: Welcome, dear visitor!

tollie Posted January 2, 2009 Share #12 Posted January 2, 2009 I wondered if you could do a frame in Lightroom... and Voila you can... In the Print Module create the frame and label... adjust the image on the "canvas" and then under print job tab select jpeg... and print to a file. Welcome, dear visitor!

Marquinius Posted January 2, 2009 Share #13 Posted January 2, 2009 Todd, What you actually did (if I understand it ) is first add a stroke border (black) and than print to a certain paper size. Which means that for any other crop, you'd have to set up a new paper size. In LR I'd either use CS3 or (as I'm doing lately) use "mogrify". Carlos: there is a tool for Aperture also: border FX.

tollie Posted January 2, 2009 Share #14 Posted January 2, 2009 Marcos, what is "mogrify"? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marquinius Posted January 3, 2009 Share #15 Posted January 3, 2009 Todd, It's basically an export plugin you can setup in LR2 (there is a version for LR1.3 as well). So you do all your things in LR and leave the picture intact (without a frame). Then you export it and in that process, you can let mogrify add a border. Takes a little fiddling to get it right, but is pretty straightforward. You can do sveral things in one go: read the instructions. You can get the standalone version, but when you're working with LR2, that's cumbersome. Here's a link to the LR-pluging: Timothy Armes' LR2/Mogrify Marco Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

allamande Posted January 3, 2009 Share #17 Posted January 3, 2009 Call me thick, but I couldn't do this in LR2. What do you exactly adjust in the Print module, to create the white frame around the picture? Paper size to JPEG doesn't do it. Or, I couldn't get it to do it.

Marquinius Posted January 4, 2009 Share #18 Posted January 4, 2009 Ece, I wouldn't call you thick: sometimes things work and sometimes you just don't get it. That's what this forum is all about, isn't it? I tried it just now (had to fiddle, as I don't use this method myself ): - took a picture from file (was working on this one ..) - went to print module in LR2 - clicked stroke border - took preformatted print size 6x4 (I use for test prints) - clicked on "print to" and changed to jpeg file - saved it - attached it to this answer Now you'd have to make a paper size that fits exactly to what you want to achieve as a frame. In my example it is just a fast example, but obiously not a nice frame. In I have the feeling I lost a lot of quality pixel-wise. Again, not my fav! I suggest you have a look at mogrify ...

MV8 Posted January 11, 2009 Share #19 Posted January 11, 2009 There a cool plug-in for Photoshop called PhotoFrame 4, has a large library of different frames but you can also make your own custom ones and save them as presets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
