+  <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>

+    upload need not be in the <file>JPEG</file> format. <app>Passwords and

+    <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>
