Simple black border, eh? Easily done:

Image -> Canvas size

10% height and width (should be a good start)

Check relative box

Canvas extension colour: Black (or whatever you fancy)

After that just add a text layer if you want your name in the bottom corner. It's easy when you get the hang of it. You can also extend them by different amount and different colour to get a nice frame effect and save them as actions so you don't have to type them in every time:
