I found out that is not always the case. It seems to depend on the
server.  For example, I used your RSA key 3BB37DA84A97932B as above, but
the server at keys.openpgp.org reported that they do not support
abbreviated keys.

What is interesting, I just fetched your updated keys from the *same*
server that I used on my lessor TB 2.0.0.24 pc, but this time on my TB
60 there was no photo offered or recorded.  :(

I wonder why the difference.
