Quick answer

To add a border, drop your picture in, set the thickness and choose a color, then press Add border. The border goes around the picture, so nothing is cut off. It is drawn in your browser.

How to add a border to a picture

  1. Drop your JPG, PNG or WebP pictures, or paste them.
  2. Set how thick the border is and choose a colour: white, black, yellow, see-through, or type your own color code.
  3. Check the preview, then press Add border.
  4. Download each file, or all of them as a ZIP.

The border is added around the picture, so the result is a little bigger than the original and nothing is cut off. The thickness is a share of the shorter side, so it looks the same on a small photo and on a large one.

A see-through border needs a format that supports transparency, so a JPG becomes a PNG when you choose it. Other pictures keep their own format.

Common questions

How do I add a white border to a photo?

Drop the photo, leave the color on White, set the thickness and press Add border.

Does the border cover part of my picture?

No. It is added around the outside, so the picture keeps its full size and the result is larger.

Can I use my own color?

Yes. Type a color code such as #1e90ff in the color code box.

Can the border be see-through?

Yes, choose Transparent. The result is saved as a PNG, because JPG cannot be see-through.

Is my picture uploaded?

No. The border is drawn in your browser, so your pictures stay on your device.
