      Hi,
      can anyone explain how to make a thin box around a module?
      Like in this picture below. I don’t want it on every module just on one or two. The Frame should be same size as the module itself. Thanks for your help!

        @Da-ne-ezy custom.css

        .MODULENAME {
          border: 2px solid white;
        }
        

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          @strawberry-3.141 Thank you very much.

          What if I want a special frame like this? How would you do it?

            Maybe like this:

              Here’s a general idea of what @strawberry-3-141 and @yawns are talking about:

              Before frame:

              0_1500984573924_mm2.png

              After adding frame to css:

              0_1500984602375_frame.png

              I did this by adding this to my own css file:

                border-style: solid;
              border-width: 6px 5px 7px 4px;
              -moz-border-image: url(https://forum.magicmirror.builders/assets/uploads/files/1500968912312-14284711641_ba88f4c074_o.jpg) 6 5 7 4 stretch;
              -webkit-border-image: url(https://forum.magicmirror.builders/assets/uploads/files/1500968912312-14284711641_ba88f4c074_o.jpg) 6 5 7 4 stretch;
              -o-border-image: url(https://forum.magicmirror.builders/assets/uploads/files/1500968912312-14284711641_ba88f4c074_o.jpg) 6 5 7 4 stretch;
              border-image: url(https://forum.magicmirror.builders/assets/uploads/files/1500968912312-14284711641_ba88f4c074_o.jpg) 6 5 7 4 fill stretch;
              padding-top: 50px;   
              padding-bottom: 50px;    
              }

                  This is really cool.
                  Now, I would like to see how to do something like this for each module…

                    @strawberry-3.141 where would that custom.css go? which directory? in the module directory?

                      @mediathreat the custom.css -file already exists and is located in the folder aptly named css

                            So does this mean you are making constant calls out to the internet to reference this picture? Would it be a better option to store a copy of the image locally for reference? Sorry for the necro
