White Border on images in a Slideshow

I have many images to be used in a vacation video.
I would like to use the Slideshow creator to help speed up the process.
This is a great tool and I like how it adds a white border around the pictures in the Collage theme.
I am planning to insert some images with my own motions between segments created by the Slideshow creator.
Of course this will look much better if I can place the same border around my image as that used in the Slideshows.
In the PIP tool, I can place a white border around my image but it is always rounded at the corners.
I would like to have multiple images on the screen at the same time.
Is there some other method to place a consistent border around an image that has square corners?

In addition, I am wondering how I might add a more elaborate border as the Slideshow creator does in the various themes?

Hi Phil -

There's no instant way to do that, though you could use with 3D & Camera View slideshow templates using your own customised frames & backgrounds.

If you wanted to build a slideshow manually using PiP Motion, I'd suggest adding the frames to the necessary images in a graphics editor... that way, you only need to set movement for the whole thing rather than the photo & the frame separately.



Here are some tutorials that should help...
