Add a colored border or frame to any image - choose the border width and color, preview the result, and download the bordered version. Useful for Instagram posts, portfolio images, and adding a clean white edge.

The most common question is about the Polaroid effect (wider bottom border). Standard border tools add equal width on all sides. To create a Polaroid style - more border at the bottom than the sides - use uneven padding values: smaller on top and sides, larger at the bottom.
