Gimp tutorial; Make a cool border for your image!

You can create your own border in whatever shape or design you want! Ohh, the freedom! I don't know exactly what to call this tutorial. You will learn how to create a fun shaped border surrounding your image. I show you how to make a cutout as well if that is how you'd like to do it. This is fun, quick and easy!

If you don't want the transparent background then do not do the Add Alpha to Selection step.

How do u add ur own border, like if I wanted to add a zebra pattern or something??

Instead of filling it with solid color hit pattern.

Another good video for newbies, funny how something which looks so easy is complicated with GIMP. Still, I love GIMP!

5/5 for the service
