Hi,

There was a tutorial for this on slashmysoul.org but it's been taken down. I asked Ashley if she can tell me how to do it but she said no :(

Does anyone know how to do it? This (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/JayUK/db.jpg) is what i'm on about (the border on on picture of the man)

One way you could do it is by first making a 1x2 pixel image. Set the background to white, and then zoom in. Using the pencil tool, make one of the pixels black.
Then you go to Edit>> Define pattern. Now, take the image you want to use, and then go the blending options and select stroke. You will see at the bottom, Fill Type. Change it to pattern, and load the 1x2 pixel pattern you just made. Lastly, change the size of the stroke to 1 pixel and you should have that dashed border. :)
