I need some help. I have read the manual and have not found how to do this yet. I have a circle seleted with the circle tool and i want to add a circle border around it. If working with paper you would have 2 paper circles. one slightly bigger than the other one. How do i add a circle border to my selection. Is there a way and i am just missing it. Is there an easier way? Please help!

Once you have you circle selected, fill that circle with either a color or pattern. Keep the marching ants. Add a new layer. Go to Selections - Modify - Expand and increase the size by the number of pixels you want. Then fill that circle.

oooh, thanks for the question and answer girls

I've wondered before how to do this too. This would work for adding a mat the same shape as a font I assume?

Yes it will add a mat the same shape as your font/text!!
