I know Facebook and other photo sharing sites modify your uploaded images because they're trying to reduce bandwidth and storage space. Is that what you're referring to?
You can avoid that by hosting your own photos. I have my own little web site, and use it to serve photos for family & friends (I send them an email with a link) or share on the internet (by posting a link). What I upload is what the recipient gets.
It doesn't cost too much. HostGator is my provider, but there's a ton of others like GoDaddy which you've probably heard of because they advertise a lot.
sRGB is just a color space, it has no bearing on file size or how much information is in the files. The reason why I brought it up is that if you shoot in a "RAW" format, color space conversion is done when you convert to TIFF or JPEG, in order produce an image file with a standard color space rather than a camera native one. sRGB is the right choice unless your final format is print, but some people choose Adobe RGB for whatever reason. If they are viewing their work on a wide gamut monitor, and it looks good for them, when they put it on the internet everyone else is going to see a dull, unsaturated image.
The converse of that is when people edit their photos on a crappy laptop screen with a poor color gamut that doesn't cover sRGB. They tend to crank up the saturation to try to compensate for their own display, and when they put it on the internet it looks blown out to people with calibrated displays.
Most of the time family members complain to me that their photos look poor or don't look right when sharing them over the internet, it's either because they or the recipient is using an uncalibrated display.
