Making a digital image into an 8x10

I have an image that I can't just crop using the crop tool, it was shot to

close with out enough space around the subject to do this.<p>

It there a way to add pixels to make it fill to 8x10? I understand the crop

factor and ran a search and found some old articles in 2005 and how to resize

for the web. Is there a way to interpolate or strecth the image to fit in PS so

that I can make an 8x10 print from a 8.213x5.44 file?

I'm not aware of anything that will, when used, preserve the image scale and composition and do what you want. If you upsize it in order to make it fit the dimensions of an 8x10 crop, you will loose the composition, or at the very least you will have to crop into the shot after it's upsized to fit the smallest dimention. That might be okay, but you did not describe the shot well enough so I can only assume that you want to preserve the composition and the scale. If you dont mind cropping and once you upsize it to then crop it down to 8x10, you can preserve the focuse or subject of the image it can be done. . .

You can use this plug-in: http://picutel.com/

What's magical about 8x10 inches? It's a different aspect ratio than your original, and you have to lose something in cropping to make it fit. If you want to frame the original image, use a larger frame (e.g., 11x14 inches) and a mat cut out to fit the print.

If you want to frame the photo then simply create an 8x10 size canvas, in your editor, around the image and get the matting to the dimensions of the image. I'd prefer to keep the best, creative image rather than crop to a certain size and lose the best look.
