Didn't really change too much. Mostly just capital letters. XD
Oh and by the way -
Boarder = A person who is boarding.
Border = Some sort of frame. (The one used in this instance) :wink:

Nice tut, thanks for posting!

nice tut, the problem is it works with only 1 program, lol. Someone using GIMP or fireworks would be lost

Post subject: 

well, not 1 program exactly...

it works for all photoshop programs (cs2, 7, ect) because photoshop is the program most graphics designers use.

Uhh with GIMP you don't even have to do all those things. Just Select All>Shrink by 1 px>Invert Selection>Fill with White.

Just be sure to do it on a seperate layer, then put that layer on Value or Overlay. ;)

In any case, it's an okay border tutorial for beginners, but it's just too basic. :?
