I find the bog standard white matting around pictures a bit boring lately, and experimented a bit with Photoshop.

Oooh, lovely stuff Bear
The colours in the border look similar to the ones in the image, did you sample them (dropper) ?
Looks great. _________________ Chordial |

Hi Buddy,
nope did not sample them, but could do of course, in this case I put in a fill layer with a solid yellowish color, then a gradient fill layer from the presets with deep orange and blue, and then reduced opacity of the gradient until I felt it matches the picture nicely. |
