remember that if you link to a photo from Pistonheads it resizes to 750 pixels wide.

How are you adding the frame? I would do it like this:

1. Open image
2. Set background colour picker to the colour you want the frame
3. Image... Canvas Size
4. Tick "Relative"
5. Enter the width of the border you want in both the width and height boxes
6. Ensure "background colour" is ticked
7. Click OK
