How do I place a border around one area?

I'm trying to work on a logo of two interlocking "G"s with one being gold and the other white. I need to put a gold trim/border around the white so that it will look better on a black background. I only have a very basic knowledge of photoshop and I'm unsure of how to add borders or outlines etc to certain areas of an image.
Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks

Hi,
Maybe it's better to take a course or some vodeo tutorial at least to begin to understand the basics, There are many resources available on the network at a low price or free and that will be of great help ...
Your question is a little vague , however we are available

  • How do I place a border around a imported image

    simple question how do I place a border around a imported image.

    An alternate 'hack' using EA UI, aside from Maries sound css routine.
    Select the image element and explore/experiment with the Box Shadow properties.
    Example below - both Drop and Inset 'faux' border.
    - set x, y and Blur to 0 and toy with the Spread integer using a positive value.
    - alter color property to your liking. I used black at 100% Alpha.

  • How can I create a border around an image in cs6?

    I would appreciate advice on how to place a border around an image in cs6. 
    Thanks in advance.

    To add to the previous responses, if you want this only for 1 image on your page, you could either assign a specific ID or CLASS to the DIV that holds that image and assign CSS for that in particular like this:
    HTML
    <img src="./your/path/to/img.jpg" id="imgwithborder" />
    CSS
    img#imgwithborder{
    border: 1px solid black; /* will render a 1px solid black line on all 4 sides */
    Alternatively, you could use inline styling to achieve this:
    HTML:
    <img src="./your/path/to/img.jpg" style="border: 1px solid black;" />
    Good luck.

  • How to make a round border around my picture?

    I am trying to design a logo that would fit into the center of a Frisbie, yet I cannot figure out how to make a round border around the picture. I have tried using the eliptical tool, and have also tried using the cookie cutter. The only option I can get to work with the eliptical tool, is the feather, yet I can't change the pixel number for some reason, so it just makes a thin circle around the picture. I thought I could cut and paste it, but the copy and cut options were grayed out and didn't work. When I used the cookie cutter, it made a nice border, and I pasted the picture into it, but, there are four sections that need to be filled in with the background color and the paintbucket didn't work in those spaces (they are the gray and white checked areas. (the picture ends up looking like a rectangle inside of a circle). So I made a new blank file and filled it in with the color of the picture's background, hoping to use the cookie cutter tool around the picture that was now pasted into the new blank file (I chose another color for the round border) and I used the cookie cutter around the picture, but when it was finished, the whole picture ended up being white. All I want to do is to make a border around a picture (a round border). Nothing I have done has worked though. What am I doing wrong, or what are some other options for trying to do this? Thanks.

    Here is a simple way to add a border. Select the item, add a blank layer, choose the border size and color and the Outside option:
    Here is the result:
    Note that you don't even need to do the Stroke on a blank layer. You can Stroke directly on the picture layer. However having the blank layer preserves the picture in case you want to start again with different Stroke options.
    If this is not what you are looking to do, please clarify.

    You would need an image editor to edit the images and add a border to the image first before importing them into Final Cut.
    Cheapest and very good image editor?

  • How can i put a border around it?

    Could anyone tell me how i can put a border around the HD symbol?
    And how can i make everything without the HD Symbol transparent?

    And how can i make everything without the HD Symbol transparent?
    Hide the Background Layer and save a copy in a file format that supports transparency (psd, png-24, …).
    What will you use it for?
    Because vector data would make sense for printing, so Illustrator might be a better choice than Photoshop for this.
    Could anyone tell me how i can put a border around the HD symbol?
    With the Layer that contains the shape selecected try Layer > Layer Style > Stroke.

    how do you create a border around text?

    Can you be a little more specific about what you are trying to do and the application that you want to use? The methods can vary depending on the application and who published it. For instance, if you're using Final Cut Pro here is a discussion describing how the border can be created.

  • How do I put a border around my title, please?

    I have a title page for a short video, edited in Premiere Pro, for YouTube.  I want to put a rectangular frame (border) around that title page.  I want the color of the border  to be the same color as the font in the title.  How do I do this, please?  Below are the three elements from Publisher - background, title and frame.  I want to combine the same elements in Premiere Pro. (I'm not trying to use Publisher in Premiere Pro, I am just trying to make it clearer what I am trying to do.) (I'm a rookie, obviously.)  Thank you.

    OK.
    First of all the yellow line started life as a rectangle. I eliminated the fill by unchecking it, and added an inner stroke. To get the same yellow you used, I took a screen capture of your image then added it to my title as a logo. That allowed me to use the eyedropper next to the rectangle to sample your yellow text for the color of the stroke. When the stroke was properly yellow, I deleted the logo (your text).
    Then I typed the text and using the eyedropper again, I changed the color to match the outline.
    Adding a little bit of shadow makes it look better, by the way. Like this:
    These are my settings for the above

  • How can I place two fields from one column side by side?

    On the side: Does anyone know how to place the question in such a way when one answers I can mark correct or helpful, I am still not able to.. I hate it, when I place a question I go through create then discussion, is that the right way?

    Hi
    Just drag the column to measure label area in pivot table @ columns.
    So the table has to drag and drop to column area on the top so it will get display like
    Sales     SaleToDate
    And the measure label to row side drag and drop it
    sales      saletodate
    values     values

  • How can I put a border around my page, or around text?

    I rarely use Pages. Only when Textedit won't do something.
    I want a frame (or box or border or whatever you want to call it) around my page. I haven't been able to figure it out from the Help. I found something about a "text box" but that seems to require creating the box first.
    Thanks a lot!
    Also, it seems that you don't have any control over where a text box is when you create it. There must be something I'm missing here.

    Hi:
    You don't say whether you've got Pages 1 or Pages 2.
    The techniques are a little bit different. But in either one, you might find it easier to follow this to begin by choosing "View / Show Layout from the menu.
    In Pages 1, you create a text box from the insert menu, choosing insert / text.
    In Pages 2, you can simply click on the T icon in the toolbar. Use View / Customise Toolbar if it's not there, and put it there.
    The text box will show on your page. Where it is doesn't matter: you can size and move it wherever you want - including outside the layout margins of your page. Just be aware that what you can print may depend on your printer. Some (mostly lasers nowadays) won't print to the edge of the page.
    To size and move your text box, you click on the margin outside it and then select / all (Command / a) to put handles on it. If this doesn't let you move it, or it springs back once you have, then go to the Arrange menu and send it back. This is because when forward it can be confined by other things on the page - even provision for a header or footer in the blank template, for example: so you might not necessarily see what's stopping it being moved.
    But Pages is a hands on program. It's always harder to describe what you do than it is to do it. Play around with it; get the hang of it. OK, so now you've got your text box. Now bring up an Inspector box, and choose the Object Inspector: the one with the square and the circle. That's where you put your borders in. Choose the line style, the colour, and point size you want, and there you are. You can do this with other text already entered: the box will hide it if the box is at the front, but if it's sent back text or other objects there when you started the box will show (and print) through it.
    You can border your page with shapes in much the same way, but a text box is maybe the simplest. And you can also overlay text boxes or other objects if you want multiple borders, special effects, or when you really get into it, line and border fonts you can get from 3rd party suppliers. A freeware example is "Borders" and you can search for it in Mac OsX downloads.
    Some printers will also allow you to surround your page with a border. If so, you'll find it simpler, but the border will go where the printer wants, and you'll only be able to set margins, which it will follow.
    Here's a tip: if you want objects you work with centred on the page sometimes, you can choose in Pages preferences to have guidelines originate from the centre of your object as you move it across the centre of your page. When you get two of them, your object is centred. But be careful if you've set up for facing pages with the margins different: there's one centre for a left page, and another for the right one.
    Too hard? Not if you use the program. You'll find out what's there, and use it easily. But Pages is not a toy, and it's not a mere text editor. Don't waste your money by letting it rot. Learn it, and you'll be astonished at what it can do.
    You can also do borders with other objects, like shapes, and the principles are much the same. Choose what best suits your project, once you know what's there. But Text Edit? You've got to be joking. It's like the old IBM/DOS one with fonts thrown in. Better learn Pages before it bores you to death!
    Cheers.
