OK, guys. When I viewed the jpegged file in Photoshop, it
uncompressed it and revealed the actual size of the uncompressed
file, which was 2.2M.
Isn't everyone on the list clear that this is what happens when you
use an image editing program to examine a file? Seems really basic
to me, surely not worth all this discussion
Well this is wrong, as Karl points out. You are not viewing the
uncompressed file. You are viewing the compressed file with a lot of
zeros added. You can't view the uncompressed file once it has been
compressed. You get a lot of extra bits but they are empty bits with no data.
