Even dialup wouldn't take so long to upload 576 KB.
Dialup give 56 Kbps = 7KBps.
Because upload is slower the down you can charge it as 2KBps.
So it will took you about 288seconds or 4.8 minutes to upload that pic.
The problem maybe the slow server cooperated with your slow dialup.
The aswer is: Take the pic to a floopy disk or any portable disk and go out to an internet cafe to upload.

575kb is an extremely large file size. if you resize the photo to a smaller size like 300x300 orso the file size will be much smaller an take a lot less time to send.
you should download the following program. with it you can resize your images.
◙ The best free image editor/viewer is IrfanView. There are many plugins you can add to this great FREE tool for a variety of tasks. Do you need to resize images, make them transparent, make a photo slideshow? These are just a few of the many possibilities.

◙ I suggest that you forget this and buy Adobe Photoshop. This is what most professional web designers use to create their graphics.

Dial up is slower because of the amount of information it can handle. I was in the same situation and I now have DSL-much faster.

You answered it yourself... "I use dial up..." If you want it to go faster, use data compression or get a faster internet connection.
