Randy, I know this is a highly subjective area but I love the way it looks. That kind of border would go just perfect on a nice big canvas stretch-frame print, , and you wouldn’t be wasting all that extra space to wrap around the edges, the image would totally frame itself. Aaahh now I want to try it!!!

I don’t like that particular border, but I like a lot of them. Maybe that one would look good on a big canvas print, but not a small web pic. Overall, I like the interesting borders for some things, but not as an all the time thing. They are more eye-popping when used sparingly, imho.
Randy, I like sloppy borders, but like the others, not for every image. I don’t think that using them would be a USP for a business but they can help define a product style. I would be interested to know what you like to use for your sloppy borders. BTW, I like the one in this image. -Jeff

Hey Rando,
These were some of my first software about ten years ago and I still use them. I think you just have to use them sparingly in an Album layout so things don’t get too busy and you loose the impact of the image.
ryc: LOL – thanks for dropping by.
re: borders, i think it depends on the photo and what you’re using it for. most of the time i find them a little cheesy, this one is not too bad, i like simplicity.
This is an interesting one. I am not a big fan of the stylized borders. I guess I’m more traditional in a standard white boarder.
If the picture is going to be timeless I think it has to be traditional. I really think in 10 years these boarders will be out of style and date the pictures.
Just my .02 worth. Now someone owes me change!
Hi Randy! Thanks for the birthday day! IT was alot of fun and actually wore me out… I need to work out more if we are going to head into wedding season!
Personally I have a couple of thoughts/feelings about borders. I like this one by the way and what you have here.
If it fits their personality then I would use them. If they are fun and full of personality and contemporary then I would use a few. If they give me a different vibe I might be less inclined…
I would not use too many even if I felt they would like them just because you dont want the album to be too trendy and dated. I agree with the above comments that you want to have a timeless album when all is said and done.
