Just wondering,

Are transaction fees proportional to the amount?

Lets say I want to send 6 cents today at the price of $130 per BTC. So thats about .0005 BTC

What would be the transaction fee? Also how would it affect the speed of confirmations?

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

You can send a transaction without any fee. It would take a couple of days to proceed if you're lucky Smiley

Are transaction fees proportional to the amount?
no they are proportional to the size of the transaction, which is determined by how many inputs and outputs.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
