KeymasterPhotoshop 7 uses .csh files (custom shape images)
I have 15 snowflake custom shapes.csh for PS6+ if you want em’. Put the .csh in AdobePhotoshop 6.0PresetsCustom Shapes. Then they are available from the custom shape picker.
Preview the 15 patterns
Download the snowflake.cshSearch the net for more custom shapes.
:edit: these will work in PS 7 etc.. -

KeymasterClose and re-open PS 7.
Check the Shapes or Styles palette.

KeymasterHey, sure thing oncewas. I’m going past Backstop tomorrow actually.
Click hold and drag layers if you need to re-arange them. The one at the top of the layers pallete is.. well.. ontop. Also click on the eye symbol to hide or show a layer.

MemberHey guys , thanks for the tip about drawing a boarder , pretty simple once you have been told how hay ! ! and then just playing around with different styles from the pallet menu, you can make up impressive photo frames ! And yeah I know there are some good actions about to make up photo frames.

Step 1
Create a new 500×500 px image with a white background.
Select the Polygonal Lasso Tool and make a complex looking
selection. Basically move the mouse around a lot and click the
left mouse button, press enter when you’re done.Step 2
With the same tool in hand make a slightly less complicated
selection while holding down on the ALT key. Fill this new
selection with red, or any colour for that matter.Step 3
Deselect (Select > Deselect) and apply the Motion Blur Filter
(Filter > Blur > Motion Blur) with a zero degree angle and a
distance of about 100.Step 4
Next apply the Extrude Filter (Filter > Stylize > Extrude)
with the following settings: Type, blocks; size, 30; depth,
30 & random. Leave the other boxes unchecked. Repeat (control + F)
this filter four or so times. Duplicate (Layer > Duplicate Layer)
the layer where your image is and Desaturate it
(Image > Adjustments > Desaturate). Use the Glowing Edges Filter
(Filter > Stylize > Glowing Edges) with edge width at 1, edge
brightness at 20, and smoothness at 1. And lastly, set this layer’s
blending option to overlay. This works on a whole wack
(even a jesus-load) of other things, so be sure to experiment
around with this technique in mind!thankyou 2Beers
hows that for a step by step explanation

KeymasterGood.. but if you ripped that off a website you should include the source http: to excise copyright law.
I love this effect. http://www.purephotoshop.com/article/80 great for making buttons etc. That can be you’re challenge for now.
