I want to have a number of images on one canvas.
Images are different sizes and some are landscape and some are portrait. Each image will be sized so that they all eventually fit exactly within the canvas size.

Adding the images to the canvas is not a problem, however, what is the simplest method to then add a thin black border around each image. This border will obviously appear irregular over the canvas as it borders each different sized image.

Hi Peter,

Select each individual image then go to Edit\Stroke and choose the size, colour and position of the border stroke you want. Press enter and your image will have a border.

Hope this helps.

A cheap and dirty ‘trick’ to create the image layers:

Use File – Automate – Photomerge
Browse or use the folder option.
Let it fail to merge
Then you will be presented with thumbnails and a canvas
Drag the thumbnails where you wish them to be (this is the handy feature) Click on the box, lower right [ ] layers

Done. You now have a canvas with each image on a separate layer. Use Katwoman’s tip on copy/paste layer style and be happy.

The copy/paste layer style: In CS (Photoshop Version 8) you can create a layer style, then control-drag it to another layer.

Hi Again
Have been trying your suggestion but am not getting exactly what I need. I have set-up a new canvas with the grid showing.
I want to add 6 or more different sized images to fall within the grid lines to get a final poster-type look.
To separate each image I want to draw say 20px wide black lines along the border of each image. This line will need to stop when it reaches another image.
Using the stroke tool on each image before I copy them onto the new canvas will mean each image will have a border that is not on the same line as the image immediately beside it. I could locate the stroke on the "centre" instead of inside or outside but I then get a rounded corner. The look I am after could also be used to border images on a Composite Card. An example of what I am after can be seen here

Only difference being that the images will be at different heights as well as different widths.

Peter
