1. Select a thick, solid brush.  I used Circle (09).  This brushes will create thick frames.  Thin brushes create thin frames.  Don't use feathered brushes.  We need a solid outline at this point.
2. Make sure the foreground is black and the background is white.
3. Outline a selection using the Bezier and Marquee tools.
4. Stroke the selections.  You can do this in multiple steps.  I created three separate selections, stroking each one individually.
5. Blur the image using the Gaussian Blur with a horizonatal and vertical radius of between 1.5 and 5 units.

1. Use CTRL-A to select the entire image.  Copy it to a named buffer (Shift-CTRL-C).  We'll call it the "frame-outline" buffer.
2. Unselect the image with SHIFT-CTRL-A.
3. Invert it - the frame becomes white and the background black.
4. Emboss the image, using a Depth of between 3 and 10.  You can pick whatever azimuth and elevation looks good to you.

1. Use the curves filter to create the metallic affect.  The figure at right shows the settings I used.  I only changed the "Value" levels, which apply to all three of the Red, Green, and Blue channels at the same amount.

1. Add a layer mask to the image.  At this point there should only be one layer in the image.  Click on the mask area in the Layers and Channels dialog to make it the active layer.  You will probably need to add an alpha channel to the layer first.  You can do that with the Layers and Channels dialog layer menus (click the right mouse button over the name of the layer to display the menu).
2. Paste the "frame-outline" buffer into the mask. Anchor it to the mask.
3. Invert the mask.  It should be black with the frame outline in white now.
4. Apply the mask.
