I just made a short film in imovie, How can i get it on the net?
It's about 3 minutes, I suppose I have to compress it and export it to a website...Any ideas?

3. As far as how many megs it is...
just find the video file (probably Quicktime), right-click it, then select Properties. It should tell you how large it is.

...to render it to a compact size and format.

7. Sorry, click on the video file, go to File, and click Info.
I was confusing Macs with PCs.

6. To find the size hold down on the control key and click
on the file icon. It should be there.

there are a lot of services that will allow you to park your info on their servers. I've never used them because I have always had my own websites. Your ISP should give you some space. Mine gives me 10mg of free server space. .Mac gives me over 100mg space, but it costs over $100 a year.
