Images are not compressed as they are uploaded - meaning they are stored in the server library as the original file. If they are then viewed in the CMS they may be resized, but they are always transmitted to the client in the original size.

You can indeed, just post a link here once you have uploaded it somewhere... Just a screenshot would be even better :)

Wow - that is strange... you might expect the reported sizes to be slightly different... but not a third of the size. Does this happen to all files, or just that specific one?
