  Right now I have very simple borders around my picture – simple black or pink border. I want my blog to look a bit cleaner & crisp & more professional & want to get an actual picture border that looks like one to better define my photos. Can you give me a list of options that I can try out?
  Thanks!

  Hi Marie,

  Are you looking to add a solid border around your photos, similar to what you have now, or would you like a stylized picture frame, like in the Esquire theme?

  If you’re looking for a more stylized frame, the best option would be to add a frame through a photo editing software, such as Photoshop. Alternatively, it may be possible to create a similar effect via the Custom CSS upgrade. The difficulty in modifying your site’s CSS would primarily depend on the look you would like to achieve and your comfort-level with CSS:

  I hope this helps!

  I don’t just want to have the solid frame option as I have now & yes, I’d like to have the option similar to Esquire.
  I guess my only option is to add it get the custom CSS upgrade but I am not really good with CSS & not sure how difficult it will be. I’d like to do upgrades to my font as well.

  Thanks!
