Novice: How to add thin black border (frame?)

I just plunged in and bought PSE 5 and am green as grass with using it.
In another graphics program I could add a thin black line or add a thin black ROUGH border to the picture, as I like how these look when printed.
If someone would point me in the right direction as to where to find this in PSE or how to accomplish this I would be most appreciative. Have searched in vain.
Thanks
Stan

I did try the Artworks and Effect Palette, but all the frames and rough borders were quite large...
I will try your second suggestion....as have not "been" there yet!
Thanks for the rapid response....
Stan
If any one is familiar with Paint Sho Pro, what I am looking for primarily is their script called "sloppy edges".

How can I add a black border at the bottom of a photo?

Just curious: Why whould you want to add navigation Rules at run time. I believe the navigation rules should be set to begin with - "by s/w Architect Design".
Else you can always use Redirect / Forward.

Thin Black Border on Video in Interactive PDF (Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional)

Hi
I am having issues with embedded video in an interactive pdf (currently using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional).
I have placed my media mp4 file in the pdf. I would like the video to have no border, so I proceeded to Multimedia Properties to edit the Appearance and set the Border Type to Invisible Rectangle. I also editted the Playback settings for the Rendition to keep the player open "Forever once activated." But every time I view pages in my interactive pdf with video there is still a thin black border surrounding the videos on initial play. If I have already viewed the video and come back to the page, the border dissapears.
Is there a way to ensure the thin black border/outline never appears in the pdf, even when first opening and viewing the file? Does this have to do with the Acrobat 8 in particular? Please let me know if you are also encountering this problem or have a solution.

Thank you so much for your help.
I am now working in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and have embedded the same video. The borders have disappeared.
I have set the video activation settings to enable when "The page containing the content is opened". When the page is opened, I am now seeing a grey box (the size of the video) flash before the video is played. Do you know of a way to not have the grey box appear before the video plays? Or is there even a way to edit the color of this box so it is a less noticeable transition in my documet? I assume this is some sort of default setting to be displayed when the video loads. Any suggestions regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Super thin black border showing around video when I zoom out or pan the video...

Hi all,
I have a video I'm making in Adobe Premier Pro CS5.5. I am using 2 video slots in Premiere Pro's sequence area. A white image is in "Video 1" spot and a video is in"Video 2" spot.
The white image in "Video 1" slot is the exact same color as the background color of the video in "Video 2" slot.
The reason for this is when I zoom the video out or pan it slightly off the screen I just want it to look like the video is moving (and I don't want anyone to be able to see the black backdrop that is normal background color on a Premiere Pro video).
After I go to effects control, and change the position and scale of the video; the video scales out and pans over fine ...however, the border of the video shows slightly ...even flickers a little. Is there a way to get rid of this thin black border line? ..So no one can tell where the video (in "video 2" slot) ends and where that white background I have in "video 1" is ...by removing this flickering border?
Here's a Screencast of the issue. I point at that thin border I'm talking about when I pan the video over (which reveals the white backdrop):http: Screencast.com/t/45xp0bQ82f
Thank you so much for any help you can provide. I appreciate it.

How to remove a black border box that continously tabs to each field automatically till end of web page; restarts to top of page, cannot stop this box. Scroll bar cannot controlled with mouse, returns auto to top of scroll slide, never remaining at bottom

how to remove a black border box that continously tabs to each field automatically till end of web page; restarts to top of page, cannot stop this box. Scroll bar cannot be controlled with mouse, scroll bar returns automatically to the top of scroll slide every time I move the bar to the bottom of the scale. Also, there's a rectangular text box (with black background and white text) that is always on the desktop that emulates a typed text, HTML, or cmd function.

The first two problems (box cycling from element to element on page, scroll bar returning to top) can be caused by a stuck (or defective) Tab key on the keyboard. Such damage can be caused by a liquid spill; just one tiny droplet is enough to short a wafer switch under one key.
The last issue (black box, white text - sounds sorta like a debugger window) I haven't seen, but could be caused by something similar.
To check for that, try using a different keyboard. If you're using a wireless keyboard, turn it off and see if the oddities stop.

Print TIF document shows thin black border

Hi,
when opening an archived document in the ECL Viewer 6.0 patch level 4, it shows a thin black border around the document. This border is not intentionally, it is drawn by the viewer.
I've verified this by opening the appropriate .tif file from the TEMP folder in an alternate viewer. This means this black border is visible on the print-out, too, which is really annoying.
I noticed when zooming the document on screen to get the border out of sight and print afterwards, the border disappears (on the paper) as well. So I assume that the viewer is responsible for drawing this box around and as a result sends it to the printer, too.
Can I somehow switch off this behavior in the viewer?
Thanks,
Michael

Hi Michael,
I opened the TIF file in ECL Viewer 6.0, selected 'Viewer' -> 'Print'
from the available menu options. Then in the dialog box that shows the
print details, I switched to tab 'Print Layout' and under the section
'Quality' in that window, I set the quality of the print image to
High Definition/Low Speed and then printed the TIF. I was able to get
the TIF printed in Microsoft Document Imager in good quality.
Few other customers had already reported this issue. On checking this
with the ECL Viewer vendor, Siemens PLM, they came back to us stating
that this cannot be set as standard by a fix as such. However, once you
set the print quality to 'High', it will remain so. I am sorry that
there is no other solution available for this. Please change the print
quality manually to High once and it will remain the same.
Best regards,
Christoph

How to add a film border in aperture 3

IPhoto adds ugly black border around imported screen grabs

When I grab a picture of an application screen (using cmd + shift + 4 and then hitting the space bar over the application), I get a screen grab that opens fine in Preview, but when I drag/import it to iPhoto, it adds an ugly thick black border around the whole picture. Why? Is there any way to stop this from happening?

Missed the Command....... I have used that command and don't get the border except when viewing the file as an thumbnail in the Finder.
Do you have a MMe account? If so upload the screenshot file to the Pictures folder and use the following code to add it to a post:
Click to View Photo
You'll get this: Click to View Photo. It's a screenshot of the screenshot and it's presentation in Safari.
So, I can see immediately from the photo in the link above that you have not used the key combi I am talking about - was that intentional?
Anyway, here's the link, and you can quite clearly see the drop shadow.

How can I remove the thin black border of Flash movie when viewed in a browser?

There is a thin border at the top and left margins of my Flash movie when the .html is viewed in a browser. How can it be removed?
Here's the movie.
One solution suggests replacing some code, but the code they suggest replacing doesn't even exist in my html file.
I have found questions similar to mine being asked all over different forums, but their solutions either don't work, or like the above, don't really apply. For such a common problem, finding the solution is getting a little frustrating.
I'm using Flash CS3 on a Windows PC rrunning XP professional.

Okay, I found the answer. It turns out that when I made the buttons in Flash (so the movie would have clickable links), the default stroke color was set to black. Change it to white and the outline is gone.
As for appearing only on the top and left of the movie - for some reason the bottom and right is being cropped a bit when it's placed in to the html page. But that's a topic for a different discussion.

Photoshop CS5, animated gif, how to add url to 1 frame.

I have created an animated gif in Photoshop CS5 and want to embed a url to one of the 3 frames.
How do I do this?
I've read that I can use the slice tool to do this (?), but if so, I need help in laymans language as to how to do this.
The animated gif is for a website on a wordpress platform. When this particular frame is clicked, it should link to the url which I want to add.
Please help!
Thank you.

Whoops, sorry put this in the lightroom forum by mistake. Will post it in the PS CS5.

When exporting a .wmv in After Effects 5 the export adds additional black/Blank frames at the end

We are experiencing an issue where we or a client provides us with a video that is a .wmv video, exported from After Effects 5 and it adds almost a second of data less video.
What I mean by data less is the video renders out as WMV, 30FPS, 24 Bitrates (No audio) that is say 7 seconds long within After Effects. The moment it is rendered/exported, it is 8 seconds and shows 8 seconds in any program we import it to. That last second is empty, there is no frames, not even black frames, and when you preview the video in any program, you see the scrub bar, drop about 1 second before the actual end of the timeline.
I opened the video in Camtasia, and you can clearly see that at the end, it shows in the timeline (Video Editor), however there is no actual video.
I import the video in my company’s software, and I move the frame scrubber at the end, it says 'Unable to retrieve the requested video frame.'. If we import it to our software, it sees no frames for that second, and automatically loops and adds the first second of the video to the end.
Typically we only import uncompressed AVIs, but would like to know what this issue is.
Windows 7 Enterprise
64bit OS
After Effects 5

I 100% agree about not being a fan of .WMV. We only recently added .wmv video support to our own program our clients use for importing videos and graphics. Our customer only used .wmv because it was on our list, and we are running into this issue.
Two different users (our own Graphic Artist, and our clients Graphic Artist) and we get the same result. We are 100% certain there is no video framerate mismatch in either of the AE files.
It would be interesting to see if anyone else using AE, if they could make a video few seconds long, export as a WMV and see if another program shows a whole extra second at the end, that has no data.
Thanks for your responses thus far.

How to add a rectangle color frame for the video clips ?

Hi there,
I have shrink the 3 video clips small enough to fit all 3 of them into 1 screen.
And now I want tomake a border rectangle color frame for these 3 video clips.
Any tips on how I shall start ?
Thanks & regards
Cheers

Ian R. Brown wrote:
I have a feeling it can't be done because the border will probably go round the original full size video.
A workaround would be to use the Custom generator to make a rectangle which you resize and put above the background.
Then put your video you want framed on top of the lot and resize it so that a bit of the coloured Custom generator is showing all the way round.
It's gonna be fiddly but simple enough in theory!
Thanks Ian, that was a good idea.
But my cropped video clip is a video clip being color-keyed (ie my video clip has alpha channel & the background is transparent). So putting a colour image behind the clip does not work because it will be seen through the alpha channel.
Any tips ?
Thanks

How to add a black censor bar to a face that moves with the face?

Please tell me how to do that
I have final cut pro x

Does it have to be a black censor bar? if not look at the Censor effect.
If it has to be a black bar. Make the bar using a Custom generator in Solids. Crop it to whatever size you want using the Crop function in the Viewer. Use the Transform function in the Viewer to position. You can keframe the crop and transform functions to animate the bar as needed.

How to add a listener for frame change

hello
Im quite new to jmf, and im writing a code which uses the webcam, but im stuck at a point where i want a listener which is called whenever the frame changes in the visualcomponent. so basically im looking for a frame changed listener to be added to the visual component instead of using a loop or a timer or something.
i just need a method to be called constantly along the stream coming from the webcam but which is consistent with the changing of the frames.
i would really appreciate any kind of help.
thank you

i thought there would be a listener or something ready to do thisThere is. It's the Rendered interface, which has a callback everytime data is received. If you want to create a custom renderer that is triggered everytime data is available, you set a processor to use your renderer and when data is available, your process command will be called. Same as an event listener...but it's very advanced stuff to implement the renderer interface.
for example if u want to record a video ull need to capture every frame as soon as it comesNo, the video doesn't come to you a frame at a time. The video is already encoded somehow when you get it, so it's coming in as a stream just like it'll be going out to the file... It's a stream of bytes, not a stream of images... You're not digitizing here, you're transcoding.
