Subkey, no. Multiple UIDs and photo UID, Yes. From within PGPKeys, navigate
Keys --> Add --> Name to add an additional UID. It will then ask you for
name and email address. Fill it in and click OK. Wouldn't hurt to self-sign
the new UID either. All UIDs on my key were created with PGP 7.03 & 8.02.
Then I copy & paste into GPGshell.
