Right now, it costs at least 0.0001 to send BTCs.

Soon, that would be an expensive proposition to many.

How about 0.000001 btcs?

I am sure this was discussed numerous times, but I really doesn't do much favors in growing Bitcoin with higher fees for sending coins.

BTC can be sent without a fee or with a smaller fee to what you have inclined.

how

In QT - Settings > Options > Main, change the fee amount from within there.

However it may not be possible in other wallets such as multibit.

The amount of coins being sent is not important, so yes, you can send thousands of coins for free.  The important quantity is indeed the transaction size and its priority, which depends on how many outputs you need to combine for the transaction, and how old those are.

Rule of thumb is that the larger the amount sent, the better (so sending 1 BTC is better for priority than sending just 0.001 BTC), and if you received / use lots of small inputs (like from a faucet) it costs you more transaction fees.

Please stop using the exchanges with high fees.  They will go away.  Let the owner know why you are taking your business elsewhere.
