Photoshop Mat & Frame Action

I've developed a series of matting and framing actions for Photoshop (CS3 & CS2, I'm not sure about compatibility with early versions). I'd like to get some feedback on how the frames and mats look. You can see examples of the mats and frames here:

If you are interested in trying out the action, you can download it here:

The current version is 1.6 which includes the following matting and framing options:

• Single White Mat & Black Frame
• Double White Mat & Black Frame
• Triple White Mat & Black Frame
• Single White Mat with black core & Black Frame
• Double White Mat with black core on outer mat & frame
• Triple White Mat with black core on middle mat & frame
• Single Custom Color Mat with white core & Custom Frame (prompts for choosing mat and frame colors)
• Double Custom Color Mat with white core & Custom Frame
• Triple Custom Color Mat with white core & Custom Frame
• Single Custom Solid Color Mat (core same color as mat) & Custom Frame

Please give it a try and let me know your thoughts about its function and what might improve it. I created these because I wasn't happy with most of the mat & frame actions that are currently out there.

Thanks,

Ryan

 

The first few are nice, but the last three not quite. They're distracting and doesn't look clean.

 

I've made some slight changes to the color mats, that I believe will clean them up a bit and make them a little better (you may or may not notice a difference). I have also added two more solid color mat options (double and triple mats), which was a request. I prefer the straight forward white mat black frame, but after several requests to incorporate color, I've added several options.

I'm open to suggestions for improvement.

Thanks
