Click on the Foreground Color box in the Materials Palette, and Click on the Pattern tab. From the drop down, you can select a pattern or graphic. If your graphic is in another file, you can open the file before you do this, and it will appear in the drop down, as a selectable pattern.
You can set the angle and the scale for the graphic. and then using the Flood Fill tool (paint bucket) click on the selected area to fill it with the pattern.

RE: Bordering an image
I see from your answer to another forum user with a similar question that you suggested copying and pasting the image into another file and then painting the borders. I have tried saving as a JPG and pasting into a new image, but I am doing something wrong because the JPG ends up being a small cropped portion of the original image rendered as 4x6. I tried the same thing with a BMP copy as well and could not extend the right and left borders beyond the original image frame.
I have dozens if not hundreds of verticals to deal with, and I am truly stuck. These are negatives of my wife and me and our three boys when the boys were toddlers and digital cameras didn't exist back then. My intent is to make albums for everybody now that our boys are recently off and on their own.
I am using Paint Shop Pro 8.1
THANKS in advance for your help on this.
RE: Bordering an image
As for getting cropped, it might be that the scanned image is too large to fit in a 4 by 6 box.
When you scan an image they are no longer constrained by their real life size. So an image that is say 2 by 3 inches, can be scanned in and be huge if the scanning software is set to scan it that way.
For conventions sake, a 6 by 4 image is about 1200 by 800 pixels. How large are your scanned in files? I suspect they are scanned at high resolution so their actual in_computer dimensions are much higher than 1200 by 800 pixels.
