Some pictures from Maine

[NC325iC]

I was up at my family's cottage on an island on the Sheepscot River in Maine and took a few pictures. Just some levels and color adjustment on these pictures. Can someone instruct me on how to put borders on these bastards in Pshop?

i love Maine so much, its one of the only places you can actually escape everything else for a few days.

especially on a small island on the river where you only have electricity and city water (we got city water in 1999 i think)

heres a quick way to add a plain border. Sorry for the ghettoness, but i have been away on business, and am doing this on my janky laptop. ps: i was TDY to "Rangley" Maine for 2 weeks, and i loved every second"

step 1: select "Canvas Size" under "Image"

step 2: Select pixels, and choose a size for your border, also select a color, and make sure the relative box is checked. click ok

step 4: preview image

step 5: done

or if you want to make life easier. upload the photos in photobucket, and select the border.

like this

only problem with that is photobucket limits your resolution to the resolution above,800x533, and these pics are 3072x2048

thanks AD

anytime, you can also download or create some really nice borders to add to images in PS, but i am working from my laptop and don't have them with me, so maybe i'll throw those up when i get back home, all i have on my laptop is plain jane PS.

I am from Maine, I grew up in Orono right next to Bangor.
The way I do my boarders are this way. Square brushes select width, hold at corner, press down then press shift (makes the line perfectly straight) then go across on all sides. Here is an example.

lol, i lived all over maine, cutler/harpswell/machias port and brunswick. great place but it would whoop anyones ass wanting to have a dropped e30 no doubt. lets just say my moms 4x4 yukon got stuck in our driveway in cutler and had to get town out by a fire truck...twice in the same day

Awesome! I'm heading up to Acadia tomorrow, actually. After these photos, I'm actually looking forward to it.

About border, simply select all (ctrl+A) and go to selection>modify selection>border. It lets you put in a border width, and gives you a selection of the proper size. Then, grab your painbucket and fill in with whatever color you want.

Very nice shots man, I would love to have one of them in that original 3072 x 2048 resolution as a screen background.

let me know which one you want ive got them all, and more that havent been pshpped any, but those were the ones i liked most

You guys are to technical.
1. Start with the stock photo
2. Make a new blank layer over the stock
3. Magic want the new layer
4. Edit>Stroke

You can change the size of the border by selecting a bigger stroke. MUCH easier way in my opinion..
