Line Edged Frame in Fireworks MX 2004
This image effect comes under the category of Alien-Skin> Edges.
It has a few Edge options such as dots, lines, lumpy, pixels, rough and torn paper. Choose images which have dark colored edges, so that the edge effects will be crisp. Here is a step-by-step tutorial to give this
line edged frame to your picture. For this, you need to have Fireworks MX 2004 installed in your system.
Step 1
Open a new page and paste an
image on the canvas.
Step 2
Select the image and click on Filters>Alien Skin Splat LE>Edges as you see in the
image below.
Step 3
The Alien Skin window below will
be displayed. Select Halftone Lines
option from Edge Mode.
Step 4
Adjust the Edge Width, Margin
and Feature Size sliders.
I've given the values : Edge Width - 42, Margin - 0, Feature size - 63, Direction - 317. If you need a transparent
fill for the image then you can check the option Transparent
Fill, which will deselect the color option and the image
has a white background.
The Random Seed value can also be adjusted. You can view the changes
in the image simultaneously on the right side preview area.
Step 5
Below is the picture with a line edged frame and a transparent fill!
When the Transparent Fill option is not checked,
the color option is made active so that you can select a color. I've selected blue, and here is what I get!
