Would I be able to remove subkeys and replace them? I don't know about the second question, but yes, hkp keyservers don't seem to like keys with more than 1 subkey. > Are my choices of keysize, algorithm and subkey usage good choices? The reason I use RSA for signatures instead of DSA is because I don't trust DSA's keysize. I have a 2048 bit RSA master (signing) key, and a 2048 bit ElGamal encrypt/decrypt key (this is the 1 subkey). > What's the proper usage for and of subkeys? 1 master signing key, 1 decryption subkey. This is what happens if you choose RSA sign and encrypt I believe, it creates 2 RSA keys. Same with just choosing ElGamal (although you have to add a subkey manually there, I think. Key generation is not a daily thing for me ;) > If possible, what's the best way to include photo ID in a key/subkey? Sorry, but I don't know the best answer to this as I only very recently got a good picture of me taken and need to look this up later myself :p -- Morgon Kanter <morgon@surgo.net> http://www.surgo.net GPG key ID: 297CEA5B
