Illusion of security

If you really want to send someone a root password for a server you should consider using gnupg.

For storing passwords safely and _comfortably_ try keepass.

If it's for anything else, use a combination of gnupg and one of the stenography tools above, never only rely on the latter one.

One last note to the author: What makes you think that someone wouldn't remember where he put a piece of paper but instead would remember in which of the thousands of pictures one someones computer he put a file? Honestly, I don't see the difference.
