so in the attached file it is a picture of a little donut. initially it did not have that green border. i had to go through a lot of trouble to get that border on there.
1. imagine without the border, what would be the easiest way to get a border around the image?
2. that border is an object with a stroke and a fill. i want that to be just one think line no fill. what is the easiest way to do this?
Draw a larger rectangle around the image - grab the fill tool and click in-between donut and rectangle - given on your settings you generate a stroke, fill or both. Take the node tool, select one node from the outer frame - select all and hit backspace to delete. Now set stroke width or an Path->Outset:
