    Photoshop (Elements) "frame" effect.
    I'm using PE 5.0... trying to find the filter or effect that does this:

    I've googled and searched the Help but coming up empty... maybe cause I don't even know what to call it.

    Any ideas how I can get that done?

    Thanks!

    I found it but I need to tweak it. It's a Layer Style called inner ridge... but the default is too thin. Anyone know how to thicken it?

    Oh geez, here I am talking to myself :p With the Layer in place it's Layers > Layer Style > Style settings: Then tweak Drop Shadow, Bevel and/or Glow.

    Woo Hoo, I want to be a graphics tweaker guru when I grow up :p

    OK first post and first time on the site, just realize I should have given the answer... LOL

    Duplicate the layer then cut out the middle leaving a good size amount all around the edge.

    Yes, then bevel and shadow and highlight to taste, making sure the "frame" is on the top layer.

    A nice touch is after you flatten it, bevel slightly again and shadow under.


    Have a great day!
