How does the image frame border maker work?

This tool uses Fabric.js canvas library to add customizable frames and borders to your images. Simply upload an image, choose your frame type (solid, rounded corners, or circular), adjust the border width and color, optionally add a drop shadow, and click Apply Frame. The tool generates a new image with your custom frame applied. All processing happens locally in your browser, ensuring your images remain private and secure.

What frame types are available?

Solid: Traditional rectangular frame with sharp corners - classic and versatile for any image. Rounded Corners: Modern frame with customizable corner radius - softer look that's popular for social media and modern designs. Circle/Oval: Circular crop for square images or oval crop for rectangular images - perfect for profile pictures, avatars, and artistic presentations. Each frame type supports custom border width, color, and optional shadow effects.

How do I customize the border color?

Use the color picker to select any color for your border, or manually enter a hex color code (like #052c65) in the text field. For quick access, use the preset buttons for common colors: White (#ffffff), Black (#000000), and Blue (#052c65). The border color is applied immediately when you click Apply Frame. You can also use the color picker to match brand colors or coordinate with your image.

What is the shadow feature for?

The drop shadow adds depth and dimension to your framed image, making it appear to float above the page. This creates a more professional, polished look. You can adjust shadow blur (how soft/diffused the shadow appears) and shadow color. Shadows work especially well with white or light-colored borders on darker backgrounds. Enable the shadow toggle to reveal the shadow customization options.

How wide can the border be?

Border width ranges from 0px (no border, just the frame shape) to 100px (very thick border). Common values: 5-10px for subtle frames, 20-30px for standard borders, 50-100px for bold statement frames. The border is added equally on all sides, so a 20px border adds 40px to both width and height. Choose border width based on your image size - larger images can handle thicker borders.

What are rounded corners good for?

Rounded corners create a softer, more modern aesthetic compared to sharp rectangular frames. They're extremely popular for social media posts (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter), website images, app screenshots, modern designs, and anywhere you want a friendly, approachable look. Adjust the corner radius from 5px (slightly rounded) to 100px (very curved). Higher radius values create more dramatic rounding - experiment to find the perfect look.

When should I use circular frames?

Circular/oval frames are ideal for profile pictures on social media platforms, user avatars in apps and websites, team member photos on company websites, contact photos, and artistic portraits. For square images, you get a perfect circle. For rectangular images, you get an oval/ellipse that fits the image dimensions. This frame type automatically centers the circular crop, emphasizing the main subject while cropping outer edges.

What image formats work with this tool?

The tool accepts all common image formats as input: JPEG/JPG, PNG, WebP, and most other web-compatible formats. Output is always saved as PNG format, which supports transparency and is ideal for framed images. PNG preserves quality without compression artifacts. The tool handles images up to 10MB in size. For best results, use high-resolution source images.

Can I use framed images commercially?

Yes! This tool is completely free with no restrictions on commercial use of the resulting framed images. You retain all rights to your images - the tool simply adds decorative frames. However, ensure you have rights to use the original images you're framing. Adding a frame doesn't grant copyright or usage rights to images you don't own.

Does this work on mobile devices?

Yes! The tool is fully responsive and works great on smartphones and tablets. Touch gestures are supported for all controls. The interface adapts to smaller screens for comfortable mobile use. However, for editing very large images or creating precise custom frames, a desktop/laptop with mouse control may offer better precision. All features are available on mobile.
