css

Hello people,

I have three images, and they are not square or rectangular in shape. They are just like face of anyone.

So, basically, my images are in the size 196x196 or anything like that, but complete square or rectangle with the face in the middle and transperant background in the rest of the portion.

~~Now, I want to remove the transperant background too and just keep the faces.~~

~~Don't know if this is possible and mind you, this isn't a programming question.~~

EDIT (from comments): How do I put a border around the shape of the image, not a rectangular one around the boundary, using CSS.
