Signing or Encrypting to the Full Extent... Is It All About Key Size or What???

Hi guys,

Sorry but I am just curious. If you would notice, I
have signed this
message and it has PGP Signed - Hash:SHA1 only. How do
I make this to SHA256 or even
greater as with Mr. Atom Smasher's all signed email
replies?

When I first generated a key, I chose the default DSA
& ElGamal 1792
key. If I have generated RSA Sign and Encrypt with key
as much as
4096, would you think I would have SHA256 or unless
otherwise? In
other words, more secure and harder for others to
break? Or at least,
will take a little bit of time to?

Special thanks to Neil Williams, Atom Smasher and
Werner Koch and
others who have replied to my previous post.

Thanks a lot!

InHisGrip,
