--Generate the Key--
>Open the terminal.
>Type in gpg –gen-key
>Type in 1
>Type in 2048
>Type in 0 			-So your key will not expire.
>Type in Y			-To confirm
>Type in your Real name		-NOT your nickname, your legal name.
>Type in your email address	-This address will be used to confirm your identity later.
>Type in a comment		-This can be anything, but keep it short.
Write down this information!
>Type in O			-To confirm
>In the pop-up box type in a pass-phrase.

Write this down! It is EXTREMELY important to remember this, as you will use it often. If you forget it, you cannot retrieve it.

>Click OK and type in the pass-phrase again.
>Now just type in random characters as fast as you can, (e.g. asidjf;laeijsf;lkj), until you get a message like this:

	gpg: key 7B8CD597 marked as ultimately trusted 
	public and secret key created and signed. 

	gpg: checking the trustdb 
	gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, PGP trust model 
	gpg: depth: 0  valid:   5  signed:   0  trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 5u 
	pub   2048R/7B8CD597 2015-02-28

	sub   2048R/972FD744 2015-02-28 

This might take a while, from time to time you might get a message like:
“Not enough random bytes available.  Please do some other work to give the OS a chance to collect more entropy! (Need 66 more bytes” 
Just continue typing as fast as you can!

>Write down the key it generated! This is very important! In the above case it's 7B8CD597.

--Upload the key to the Ubuntu servers.--
>Type in cd ~ 			-In case your current directory is not already home.
>Type in gpg --export -a "Your Key" > key.asc
In the above case it is gpg --export -a 7B8CD597 > key.asc
>Go to your home folder and open key.asc 
>Copy all the text
>In your Web browser go to http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/
>Paste the copied text into the text box provided:
>Click Submit
You should get the message: "Key block added to key server database. New public keys added:
