A number of entries in the book challenge have borders which I had thought were illegal. For example, frayed edges and drop shadows or other digital effects.
What are the rules on this one?

For the border you can do pretty much what you want, except don't add any text or any element from another picture or clip art.
Vote on them as if they are legal; you may rate them however you like. |

So it's ok to use one from Photoshop or PS Elements that's premade?

That could come under the heading of "clip art." I would (usually do) avoid that kind of thing. You are more likely to get a backlash of lowered voted from the anti-border crowd than you are to get someone to raise their vote because the border so significantly enhances the image.
Simpler borders are more popular here -- I've gone very simple (or none) with most of my recent entries, and add a little more for a print image where aspect ratio and sampling issues come into play.
This is just one opinion though ... I don't think there's a completely definite policy. |
