Hi Aman,

If you're using Photoshop CS, open the image that you'd like to alter, and go to the Filter pulldown menu. You'll see all your choices of filters come available.

What it sounds like is that you're looking for an effect like Glowing Edges (found under the Stylize submenu). You could also try Accented Edges (found under the Brush Strokes submenu) or Ink Outlines (also found under the Brush Strokes submenu).

All of these filters have options you can modify to suit your ideas and taste.

Also if you're using Photoshop CS, you'll see that the Filter Gallery comes up automatically when you select a filter you want to use. This is a means of letting you sample all the filters before you make a decision.

If none of these filters do what you're looking for, please post back and let me know, and I'll send you an email address so you can send me a sample image.

Hope this helps!
