cenflskate, what is the movie format? is it .mov for quicktime or .mp4 or something. what operating system are you running, osx or xp. isquint is a good program for macs but there are so many more converters for windows.

file>export>using quicktime conversion

go to settings > video settings and change the quality and make it medium to low, most sites it has to be about 100 mb

If you don't make it low quality when you export it, theres a little wonder of the world called "Windows Media Encoder" that compresses vids nicely. there is a great tutorial online that I will find if anyones interested. It rips quality to shreds but so does youtube so no worries.
