look on atncentral.com - there is at least one set of actions which do this ( Andrea's Frames here ) and there may be more.

Use HP5 borders on colour prints and see who notices...

I must admit that I seldom try to simulate film borders though I did have a go at a Polaroid last month but they tend to look at bid odd when blown up to more than Polaroid size.

You could always scan in one of the borders you already have and use that.

It's probably what the Lizard did.

Must admit that their Polaroid frame is the same as mine but I'm sure I got it from somewhere else. No doubt there are copies spread all over the net.

She'll have your guts for garters Fen. I get enough grief for saying her name wrong let alone spelling it wrong.
