Image Border (Mikey) Input Parameters:

image

This parameter represents the input image to which the border will be applied. The image should be in a format that the node can process, typically a tensor representation of an image.

border_width

This parameter defines the width of the border to be added around the image. It is an integer value with a default of 10, a minimum of 0, and a maximum of 1000. The border width determines how thick the border will be, with larger values resulting in a thicker border.

border_color

This parameter specifies the color or style of the border. It can be a string representing a color name (e.g., 'black'), a tuple representing an RGB color (e.g., '(255, 0, 0)'), or special styles like 'checkerboard' or 'blur'. The choice of border color or style significantly impacts the visual effect of the border, allowing for creative and varied designs.

• For a more dynamic and playful effect, try using the 'checkerboard' style, which adds a patterned border that can make the image more engaging.
• If you want a subtle and professional touch, use the 'blur' style to create a border that blends smoothly with the edges of the image, providing a soft and elegant finish.
