Hi Raven and Jeff,
Boy, this topic sure died quick. I guess frames is not a popular topic around here.

For basic frames, I think using the techniques photo-framers' use when matting a photo works great.
I usually select no more than two colors. One dark and one medium.

I select those colors using the eye dropper in PS.
I prefer the outside border always be the darker one. -Bob
