i just bought an epson r230 and i find their frames good enough but i wanted to design my own. i tried their photo in-frame designer (PIF) but i still have to design the background with photoshop and make photo placeholders before importing them to PIF. with this tutorial i think it'll be much faster. so thanks again bedlam123. thanks also for the dancin' dudes brushes.

i tried the illustrator way of adding frames to photos and it a breeze. but i have one problem though, when i printed the photo its quality diminished. should i save it as jpeg first then print it or is there a way to print it directly from illustrator without loosing the photo quality? well i could just create a frame from illustrator and import it to epson easy photo print but the i will loose the transparency. with illustrator i can add frames or borders that is layered over the photo but with epson utility the picture will only show through the picture box you created. i hope it makes sense to you. thanks in advance for the help.
