Even after searching the forum and browsing/modifying theme.css and album.tpl, I still haven't figured out how to add a simple 1px border to my thumbnails. I added the CSS code to the "giThumbnail" attribute but that doesn't work, which is more than somewhat perplexing. Does anyone know why that is so?

what theme are you using?

in matrix, you could try 

     td.giAlbumCell img { border: ... ;}

this works:

#gallery td.giAlbumCell img, #gallery td.giItemCell img {
    border: 2px green solid;
}

you have to add the #gallery, because higher up in the CSS file, "#gallery img" is defined as {border: none;}
Since id's have higher value than classes, you have to add the #gallery id in your definition.

Awesome, thanks much... I don't know why the hierarchy thing didn't occur to me when i first saw #gallery img {border-width: 0;}

To obtain the exact id or class name, install a dev toolbar in your browser.
you can find links for FF and IE6 here: http://gallery.menalto.com/node/39107#comment-145307
