Overview
WP Image Borders makes it easy to:
- automatically add borders around images in posts
- selectively add borders around images in any part of your site
- change image border styles
- change image border colors
- change image border width
- add shadows to images in your posts
To add borders around images in your posts, simply check the checkbox in the settings titled “Add borders to all images in blog posts.” This will automatically add the borders you’ve created to all images in your blog posts.
To add borders around images in specific parts of your site, you can add a comma-delimited list of CSS classes of the image containers. You can use this to add borders to images in a certain part of your site, or in addition to adding borders to all images in your blog posts.

Just what I needed

Happy to found this plug-in. It’s really easy to us.
It’s kind of okay

Puts border on either ALL images or NONE but there is it seems no way to target just individual images, at least I can’t find any way to make that work.

finally a plugin that needs no work
Unintuitive
by Jason Chen·9 years ago
First of all, “Add borders to all images in blog posts” do not work so I am forced to use CSS classes manually for each image.
Secondly, the CSS class syntax is also inconsistent with the Image CSS class in Image Details (Advanced Options). While the plugin setting takes classes with a “.” in front, the image settings take classes without “.”.
These two issues forced me to spend a good amount of time debugging.
Lastly, the borders do not fit correctly in neither tablet and mobile modes. The right sides are cut off screen, including parts of the image. Other plugins such as the Slider WD has the borders and images fitting correctly.
