Is MyPublisher considering adding a function to the book design to be able to add a keyline border (any color) but black or white would be awesome. Plus maybe an option for a sloppy border!?

Hi Ravensblend,
While we do not have a border option, I have forwarded your suggestion to my supervisor for further review.
You can create your own images by using photo managing software like Photoshop. This allows for more creative flexibility, such as embedding text in the jpeg image or placing a background behind the photo.
--- IMAGE SIZES ---------------------------------
Deluxe Hardcover
15.08" wide by 11.58" inches high at 300dpi (4524 x 3474 pixels)
Classic Hardcover
11.08" wide by 8.58 " inches high at 300dpi (3324 x 2574 pixels
Paperback PocketBooks
7.83 " wide by 5.83" inches high at 300dpi (2349 x 1749 pixels)
--- COLOR SETTINGS ---------------------------
~ Use sRGB or RGB when enhancing photos – no CMYK.
~ Use sRGB or RGB for black and white photos – no Grayscale.
~ Remove any vectors, slices or layers from your images.
~ MyPublisher does not currently provide ICC profiles for our output devices
--- BLEED / GUTTER ----------------------------
IMPORTANT: Please allow 1/8 inch gutter around all sides of your jpeg image to allow for potential cropping in the printing process. Without this allowance, any text or image placed at the edges of the jpeg may be cut off when the book is printed.
--- FILE FORMAT ---------------------------------
Your images must be saved as JPEG files (file ends in .jpg or .jpeg) at the maximum quality setting.
------------------------------------------------------
Once you've created your images using a third party image editor, you can then use the Get Photos mode to bring them into the MyPublisher app. Then while in Make Book mode, you can select a '1 Photo' page type from the page menu for each page on which you'd like to place a custom image. After that, it's just drag and drop.
Hope this helps!
