Adding simple boarders in Elements 6 (Batch)

[Steveo_Hants]

Hi guys, I have finally finished processing all my safari photos, ended up with 151 in total.

Now I want to add some simple boarders to them for sharing on the web. I normally use the Resize Canvas size in Elements, doing a triple type boarder (2 black resizes with a thin white resize in between). I don't want to have to sit and do all 151 individually, it will take me days!

I can't see how to do it as a batch in Elements, is it possible or can it nly be done in CS2/3/4?

I have Capture NX but not really used it before, I took a quick look but couldn't see a way of doing something similar.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not familiar with Elements but doesn't it have "actions"?

No it doesn't have "Actions" but I have been doing some reading on the "Automator" function and it seems that may help a little, I'll still have to go through and open each image manually but it looks like it will then apply my boarder automatically.

Nope the Automator function isn't suitable. :bang:

Anyone have any other ideas, getting really annoyed now.

I'm finding a lot of tutorials around are based on CS and not Elements.

I am using Elements myself and as there are no tutorials for it am finding it difficult to learn so will be watching this with interest
