Set the border width and colour, add an optional matte, and round the corners as much as you like.

Save as PNG to keep rounded corners transparent, or JPEG for a smaller file — made right on your device.

What a border and matte do

A border is a solid frame drawn around the outside of your picture — great for making a photo pop on social media, giving product shots a tidy edge, or printing with a clean margin. An optional matte adds a second inner band of padding in its own colour, just like the mat board in a picture frame, so the image gets a little breathing room before the outer border. Turn up the corner radius for soft, modern rounded corners. Everything is drawn on an HTML canvas at full resolution, so the result stays crisp.

Private by design. Everything happens right here in your browser. Your image is never uploaded — we never see it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What image formats can I use? ▼
You can add a border to JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF and BMP images, and save the result as either PNG or JPEG.
Will adding a border change my image's size? ▼
Yes — the border and any inner padding are added around your photo, so the finished image is a little larger than the original. The live preview shows the exact final dimensions.
What's the difference between the border and the matte? ▼
The border is the outer frame. The optional matte is a second inner band of padding in its own colour, just like the mat board inside a real picture frame.
Can I get rounded corners? ▼
Yes — use the corner radius slider. Save as PNG to keep the rounded corners see-through, or JPEG, which has no transparency so the corners are filled with white.
Does the percentage border width scale with the image? ▼
Yes. When you switch the unit to %, the border width is calculated from the shorter side of your image, so it stays proportional whatever the size.
Is my image uploaded anywhere? ▼
No. Everything runs entirely in your browser on your own device — your image is never uploaded and we never see it.
