Not-found Photo: This option in the Set Default Photos screen lets you assign a generic Photo ID to any incoming call from a person whose number is not found in your Contacts.

Display Settings -- Selecting this from the Options submenu opens the Display Settings screen, which allows you to specify whether the Photo ID should consist of only a photo (Use Photo Only), or a photo merged with a template (Use Template).
