Frame an Existing Cover

Frame an Existing Cover

  • Upload the thumbnail you already made and add a border around its outer edge. Keep the central subject, headline, and scene intact while the frame gives the image a clearer boundary. Finish a revision without reopening the entire cover design.

Match the Border Color

  • Choose a border color from the palette or a recently used shade. Pair a black border with a bright image when it creates the separation you want, or choose an accent that echoes a meaningful color in the scene. Keep the frame connected to the cover rather than using color only for noise.

Tune Width and Corners

Tune Width and Corners

  • Adjust border width until the frame feels visible without stealing the image's space. Set the corner radius to keep a sharp graphic edge or a softer rounded shape. Give series covers a repeatable edge treatment while preserving room for each episode's subject.

Switch the Line Style

  • Select solid for a clean outline, dashed for a lighter cue, or double for a more formal frame. Compare the styles against the image before you apply one. Let the line reinforce the tone of a tutorial, reaction, game highlight, or channel series without promising a performance outcome.
