If the new rule states that a border may not contain a photograph --"Your submission may include a border, but the border may not contain any text, clip art, photographs, or other artwork." -- then all this arguing is about nothing--if borders maynot contain photographs.

ROFL!

A photograph cannot be part of the border.

Also,

I'd like to know how to reduce the size of the file of the photo without ending up with a very small picture or poor quality one.

Thanks

Check this tutorial on resampling.
For simple, solid borders, have your final photo a few pixels smaller than the final size (e.g. 620 pixels wide). Set the background color to the desired border color, and increase the Canvas Size by the desired number of pixels. The 620 pixel width would let you increase the canvas by 10 pixels on each side. For a double border, repeat the above using different colors and splitting the allotment of available pixels.

Borders can add to, or detract from, an image. (Duh!) However, they will not make a rose out of a stinker of an image.

So when it comes time to vote, if you do use a border one of the things I will be taking into account is how well the border fits the image.
