Portrait Frames are available from many different sources.
They wrap around your character portrait to give your UI a more unique look.
Other players are able to see your frame when they select you.
I Was Framed!
If you can’t see your portrait badge/frame (or other peoples) you should check if you have accidentally switched off the setting to see them, you can find this in — Settings > Interface > Display — In the top right is an option that says ‘Show additional player portrait frames and icons’, make sure this is ticked as on!
