By themselves, pictures can be enhanced through the effects of Adobe Photoshop Elements. One of the finishing touches that you can apply is to frame your masterpiece. Here's how...
1) Load crab.jpg | Crab.jpg is in the 'images' directory |
2) Move to the picture frame choices that Photoshop Elements offers. From the Artwork and Effects menu, select Frames. | |
3) Select the desired frame effect. You may browse though All of the frame effects or ask Elements to filter them to show you only the effects that work as Frames. | Click on thumbnail of your choice to select that effect. |
4) Apply the effect. | Drag and drop the selected frame over picture or click on the Apply button. If you get into the habit of editing more than one image at a time, the drag and drop option may be helpful in avoiding applying the effect to the wrong window! |
5) Keep this effect? (Yes or No) | This operation cannot be undone! Make sure that you really like the effect before saying yes. |
6) Experiment | The Effects option gives you so many ways to enhance your picture. It's worth the time to check out the various effects. |
