If the camera thing and dialup uploading is still an issue, look around in your camera or image program's options (or in it's save options) for something to reduce the resolution. If you see something cranked up to 300 dpi, or greater, that's too big for easy dialup transfers if it's 800x600. It might be set that high coming out of your camera. On your computer, save the .jpgs at 72 or 96 dpi for area shots, and leave the higher resolution stuff for closeups if you think you need it. Irfanviewer is a good small free app (non-nagging shareware) for image editing if your app doesn't cooperate. Posted is an edited image that was originally 2835 x 2047, at 300 dpi, and over 4MB. At that size it took up about 4 monitors worth or area in a browser, and was a pain to scroll. With Irfanviewer I made it half size twice to fit on a standard monitor, then saved, changing the resolution to 72 dpi at the save prompt. Now it's 708 x 511 pixels at 72 dpi, and is down to 100KB. That'll work for your pics even if it's coming out of the camera at the maximum size and resolution. 800x600 or 1024x768 at 72 or 96 dpi should be doable with dialup without you having to wait forever on the upload.
