    1) Ctrl+alt+Shift+N
    2) Ctrl+A
    3) Edit-Stroke
    4) Add a color, 1 pixel.


    This is the most basic border alive.

    When you start making more advanced sigs, don't give your sigs a border. ;)

    ^^Yeah I agree with him, pretty much everything looks better without borders. If you looks around here and see some great tags , you'll notice they usually don't have borders.

    Use the marquee tool, and stroke it black.

    Yea, pretty much was some of these people said, tags look more pro without a border, at your position, id just use a 1px black border.

    yea sometimes a border can make or break a sig, try it out on the sig and if it looks like crap then get rid of it, if it looks good keep it

    hmm i think im fairly good [not the best but pretty alright] at sigs, i prefer borders on them due to how many forums i go to, and how occasionally my sigs will clash a but with the layout throwing off the overall effect, i just personally prefer them.
    ANYWAYS!

    1px stroke then sent it for inner instead of outter [make sure this is on your background layer]

    hopefully that helps
