+        _imagedata is a string containing the raw image data.  If this data
+        can be decoded by the standard Python `imghdr' module, then the

+        Otherwise, you can specify the specific image subtype via the _minor

+        _encoder is a function which will perform the actual encoding for
+        transport of the image data.  It takes one argument, which is this
+        Image instance.  It should use get_payload() and set_payload() to
+        change the payload to the encoded form.  It should also add any
+        Content-Transfer-Encoding: or other headers to the message as
+        necessary.  The default encoding is Base64.
+
+        Any additional keyword arguments are passed to the base class
+        constructor, which turns them into parameters on the Content-Type:
+        header.
