Excellent advice. Heed it.

I swear I do that everytime, and I swear I put borders on my sigs.

Well, any way to restore PS to factory settings?

Photoshop has a border around everything by default but that doesn't mean it translates to your work, it's part of the program. And if you held down shift, your render would be proportioned right so obviously you didn't.

I did, actually.

Not sure why my borders never show up, or why it doesn't work when i try to resize holding shift.

Which is why I asked how to restore to factory settings.

Get on msn I'll walk you though it/try to figure out what's wrong.

If you can't resize it holding shift use the scale tool.

control A
edit stroke 2 px
choose a color that stands out, but matches the sig

in this case a green would had been good.

Yeah, he knows Jenna. Turns out he was doing stroke, but had it set to outside, which will cause the border to be placed outside the selection, which obviously means it will not actually be in the siggie. And he was resizing by dragging the sides, not the corners.
