Use the eyedropper, and select your color.
Then determine how wide you want the border, and let's say you have plenty of room inside an already cropped 640x480. Rectangular marquee tool drag and select the whole pic, edit, stroke, 20 pixels, inside, make sure the color you wanted is in the color box, if not, just click on it and then use your eyedropper on you toolbar foreground color, which is where it should be if you chose it ahead of time, then OK, then while the marching ants are still around the image, repeat and edit, stroke, this time pick black in the stroke window, and this time choose 19 pixels, hit ok, and click away somewhere to de-select.
Same similar can be done by extending the canvas by 20 pixels of the desired color color, then edit, stroke, black, 19 pixels inside, and you're done.
Instructions on how it was done were also added in the comments box on this shot
