I completely agree with Ken Tanaka. Digital borders, drop shadows, and frames are kitsch. Serious successful professional photographers or their web designers who use them are propagating bad taste, and I think less of their work, or at least of that of their web designers, when I see it.
An image on the screen is not like a print in a reflective medium, which may be appropriately framed. An image on the screen is like a transparency on a light box. A transparency on a light box for presentation is best displayed in a black presentation mount that becomes invisible to the eye.
