Colour border around an IMG?

[Rileykins]

Hello!

This is probably super simple, but I'm clearly not grabbing onto it properly =/ Can someone help me put a colorred border around an image without having to just do it in Photoshop?

On my testing forum I have this as my base code:


[div style="border:50px;padding:10px;color:#000000;"][div align="center"][img src="https://68.media.tumblr.com/aacc4c035b9e1ad99764f907a0029807/tumblr_ogew2mgpKY1rcjq6vo1_540.png" style="max-width:35%;" alt=" "][/div][/div]
I just want a thick border around the image I plan on posting, and while I'm getting the "padding" effect (theres a clear space where the padding has gone around the image) I'm not seeing any colour with it. Is it just me or am I missing something? Thanks!

You border tag needs to be formatted like this: border:#ddd 8px solid;

If you want the border snug around your image, add it to your img tag:


[img style="max-width:35%;border:50px solid #00000;" alt=" " src="https://68.media.tumblr.com/aacc4c035b9e1ad99764f907a0029807/tumblr_ogew2mgpKY1rcjq6vo1_540.png"]
