Problem
I want to put a thick, 15px border around the outside of a layer; I do not want to put it on the inside as I want to maintain the viewable area of the layer. I've tried stroke (and layer styles) but there's no option for square, outside borders.

Fix for: Photoshop: How to put an outside stroke with square corners on a layer
Low Risk
Make whatever you're drawing 15px too big and put a 15px inside border on it. If you have a photo or other artwork, select it (Apple + click on the layer) and then go under Select->Modify and expand it by 15px.
