Frequently asked questions

How do I add a frame to an image?
Select your image, choose a frame color, and adjust the thickness slider. The frame is added outside the image without cropping it.
Does adding a frame resize my image?
The image itself is not scaled. The output canvas expands by the selected frame thickness on all four sides.
Can I choose the frame color?
Yes. Use the color control to choose any frame color, including colors with partial transparency.
What file formats can I export?
You can export as PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, BMP, or HEIC.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes — completely free, no account needed. Your images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to a server. Downloads have no watermarks.
