Scotty - methinks you STILL don't understand my situation - vis-à-vis - telephone connection/uploads. ... I must do it as quickly and efficiently, as I possibly can, and then, get off-line, again, to accept calls. Got it?

I understand perfectly well. It has to do with megabytes transmitted, not megapixels. Don’t you know the difference?

Do you get a lot of calls after midnight? Or is that just a new excuse?

Sounds like the world has passed you by.

An inexpensive ISP would be cheaper for you than a second phone number (like we had to do back in the Stone Age).

You seem to be more creative coming up with excuses than with solutions.

Hey, Scotty … you've given me a headache with all this … one fine B-Day Present … thanks, a lot!!!

Hey, if you hurry - you just might be able to get me fixed up with FIOS, before the end of the day!!!

FYI - I reduced a 24MP (12.9MB) file earlier, to min. HD - turned out to be 1.5MB. I, then - could NOT send it via e-mail, after two hours of trying. I reduced it further to 640 (a 450kb file) and it went thru, without a hitch. So, your hypothesis - doesn't mean SQUAT - to me. Now, leave off - willya?

You actually proved that my advice works.

You managed to find your threshold near 450kb. You are almost there.

Now take that 24 MP file and resize it to 6 MP (3000x2000) before you compress it. The only thing left is to find out how much compression you need. I will spoon-feed it to you.

Happy Birthday!

6 MP, no JPEG compression (100%), 5.55 MB
