Edited: I’m sorry, that suggestion will not work. Let’s just wait until someone who knows what they are talking about comes here. Then we’ll both learn. 🙂

Caflyguy,

Change the background to a layer or work on a duplicate layer.

Activate the Shape tool. On the Options bar:

(1) Choose Rounded Rectangle

(2) Set the radius of rectangle’s corners in pixels

(3) On the far left of the Options bar, you may activate only one of three choices, namely "Shape Layers", "Paths", "Fill Pixels". Activate Paths.

Drag the cursor to form the rounded rectangle path

Convert the path to a selection by CNTRL-clicking on the work path on the Paths palette

Invert the selection. Delete.

The interior of the rounded rectangle is left opaque and the exterior transparent.

If you were working on a duplicate layer, deactivate the substrate to see just the layer you "cropped". It’s not technically a crop but for all intents and purposes it serves as one.

One quick way: Select>All. Edit>Stroke. In the Stroke dialogue box, set how many pixels you want the border to be and where you want it to be (inside, outside, etc.). Click OK and the border will appear in whatever foreground color you have selected.

image>cavas size, increase the canvas size for the borders. the borders will be whatever you have selected as a background color.
