I would volunteer, but I don't live near Worcester anymore. :|

:)

Generally speaking, it's:

gpg --edit-key <keyid>
showphoto

On my Mac, it pops up Preview with the jpg.  You could also do:

gpg --list-key --list-options show-photos <keyid | userid | ...>

In theory it should work on Linux in X as well, though you may need to set
"--photo-viewer".  "man gpg" is helpful, look for "photo". :)

There may be GUI tools out there to deal with the keys as well.  I'm a fan of
the CLI.
