I've gone through all the frames for Elements/Frames and have yet to find a simple round circle. All seem to have a modified edge. Just want a circle. Anyone know where this is in Frames?

Thank you for bringing this up AGAIN, @LloydCain-1957
I don't know why Zazzle is hiding basic things like a circle. If you go to the frame area in elements there is an option to search. Type in circle, and you'll find it.

Hello,
I don't know if this is helpful at all, but when I am in the editor, when I click on "elements" from the left navigation panel, it brings up another screen called "elements". At the very top of the panel are shapes under a category called "dynamic shapes". They are gray in color. The third one over is a circle. When you select it, you can make it smaller or larger as a circle, or you can pull it from the edges and turn it into more of an oval. Also you can select a color for the fill, or transparent. You can also choose a color for the border, make the border thicker or thin, or make the border thickness zero and the border will be gone. I am not sure if that is the kind of circle you meant. But I use it a lot. Good luck! ps I am trying to attach a print screen here for you to see.Circle Element

My apologies. I did not explain adequately. I don't merely need a circle design. I need one of the photo frames to be a simple circle - naturally to hold a photo in that shape. The Dynamic Shapes are not meant to enclose photos. Thanks for responding so quickly, I'm just sorry that I failed to explain my problem properly.

Sorry, I misunderstood. In the past I always used it with a mask and included the photo. I have to learn how to use the frames more myself.

If you choose the circle under the elements tab as @DeannaB has suggested, you can then upload the placeholder image and set that to a template under the selling options tab. Then go to layers and highlight both the circle and your placeholder image. At the top of the artboard there will be a toolbar that has the "mask" option that looks like a circle with a picture in it. Click on that and it will mask the placeholder photo to the shape of the circle. I hope this helps.
ETA: If the image isn't centered to your liking after masking, just double click on the image and you should be able to move it around inside the circle to place it correctly.

AGAIN? I did? Oops. At least now I know how to find the circle. Just not sure why it is not obvious when I look at all the frames (as I did!). Thanks. Maybe my memory will last a bit longer now. I'm 91 so maybe I have an excuse. Thanks!!

Apologies, @LloydCain-1957
I did not mean to upset you as I was referring to a general issue of bringing up things repeatedly without Zazzle fixing anything (this problem being mentioned by other designers before). We used to have a section of basic frames, but it was deleted in the general downgrade of the design tool.
So please rest assured that it has nothing to do with your memory!

Thanks. At my age memory is a problem anyhow so I was never insulted. No problem. Just thanks for your input.
