Photoshop: How to put an outside stroke with square corners on a layer

Photoshop: How to put an outside stroke with square corners on a layer 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.

"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."
