 * Greetings,
    I am running NextGEN gallery Version 2.0.66.27. Everything works 
   great. I have a few of the NextGEN Basic Slideshow on one of my pages. They work
   great. My question is how can I add borders to the slideshow to make them look
   more appealing.
 * So, How do I add a border and maybe a drop shadow to the slideshow?
 * Thanks,
    Stan

 * [@samster19](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samster19/) – You will likely
   need to apply some custom CSS but without sharing a link to where you are displaying
   the slideshows anyone would just be guessing for the most part on what to suggest.

 * Cais,
    The site is still under development. I put the site ‘Live’ so you can 
   see what I am talking about. The site is at – [http://newenglandphotography.net/](http://newenglandphotography.net/)
   I would like the slideshow to look like what I have here, if possible – [http://newenglandphotography.zenfolio.com/](http://newenglandphotography.zenfolio.com/)

 * [@samster19](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samster19/) – Something like
   this will get you started:
 *     ```
       .slideshow object {
           border: 10px black solid;
           box-shadow: 10px 10px 5px red;
       }
       ```
   
 * You will have to tweak that custom CSS to fit your needs.

 * Where and what CSS file do I need to edit for this?. Im not really familiar with
   CSS as I wish I was.
 * Thanks,

 * [@samster19](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samster19/) You have to put 
   those lines in Gallery > Other Options > Styles

 * [@tizz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tizz/) – Thanks!
 * [@samster19](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samster19/) – Those are just
   examples, you will need to modify them to meet your needs … or get some help 
   with the custom CSS to accomplish what you are looking for.

 * [@samster19](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samster19/), here is something
   closer to what you want

           border: 5px #006A6A solid;
           box-shadow: 1px 2px 5px #151515;

 * Tizz and everyone else, I added the above code to the Gallery > Other Options
   > Styles, See below, and I dont see any change.
 * /*
    CSS Name: Default Styles Description: NextGEN Default Gallery Stylesheet 
   Author: Photocrati Media Version: 2.12
 * This stylesheet is provided to allow users the ability of overriding the default
   styles for all display types
    */
 * .slideshow object {
    border: 5px #006A6A solid; box-shadow: 1px 2px 5px #151515;}
 * Sorry about my lack of CSS skills.
