How to use Add Border to Image

A border expands the canvas around an image and fills the new outer area with a selected color. The original pixels remain centered inside it.

  1. Choose an image.
  2. Set the border width and color.
  3. Preview the new outer dimensions and download the bordered result.

Practical example

A 1000 by 1000 image with a 20 pixel border becomes 1040 by 1040 pixels.

Useful tips

  • Account for the added pixels in final layout dimensions.
  • Choose a color with sufficient contrast.
  • Use a modest border for small thumbnails.

Limitations

The border adds to the output width and height rather than drawing over the original edges.
