+ <p>You can attach a photo ID to your keys so that everyone can identify your
+ keys after looking at your photo. Though a key with an attached photo will
+ provide a slightly better level of security than a key with no photo,
+ checking the photo on a key is not as safe as checking the
+ <link xref="key-fingerprint">fingerprint of the key</link> because anyone
+ having your photos can create a key with your photo ID while the key
+ fingerprint cannot be mimicked.</p>
- <p>Short introductory text...</p>
+ <note style="info">
+ <p>Unlike the restrictions in <app>gpg</app>, the photo you want to
+ upload need not be in the <file>JPEG</file> format. <app>Passwords and
+ Keys</app> letss you upload your photo in <file>png</file>,
+ <file>jpg</file> and several other common image formats.</p>

+ <title>To attach a photo ID:</title>
+ <item>
+ <p>Select the key to which you want to add a photo ID.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Right click on the chosen key and select
+ <guiseq><gui style="menuitem">Properties</gui>
+ <gui>Owner</gui></guiseq>.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Click on the button marked with a <gui style="button">+</gui> on
+ the left hand side to add a photo.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Select the photo of your choice from anywhere on your computer.</p>
+ <note style="info">
+ <p>The photos you select should be small in size, preferably about
+ 120 by 150 pixels. Since a photo ID is always attached to its key a
+ large photos will increase the key size and thus slow down all
+ operations on the key. <app>Passwords and Keys</app> resizes large
+ photos to the optimal size after asking for your confirmation.</p>
