Ok,
After reading on POTN, I steered clear of nearly uploading my pictures to a microstock site like istockphoto.

I decided to check out Photoshelter. Does anyone have any experience with them? What is it like?

Also, their payment options include:
By check
By Paypal
By ACH

Since I do not reside in the US and I don't trust my postal service to deliver the checks, option 1 and 3 are out.

I have a Personal Paypal account. Can I receive money from Photoshelter with this?
Also, how would I obtain the money from Paypal? I have only used Paypal in a limited capacity and so far, just to order Jason Cole's DVD (which I have not received as yet btw). How can I use it to transfer money from the Paypal account into my own bank account? Do I have to upgrade to the Premier or Business options for that?

Yes, they can send you money into your PayPal account.

With my last business (non-photographery) I used PayPal to process my credit card payments, send payments, etc. I like PayPal.

You can apply for a PayPal debit card (I believe anyone with a PayPal account can). It's NOT a credit card, but it's a debit card where you can access the money in your account (either take cash out at ATM's or use it as a debit/credit card when buying things at stores).

Otherwise, you can request PayPal to send you a check for the money in your account or transfer funds into your bank account.

Thanks for that valentinephoto. Did you have a personal paypal account like I do?
I think the best bet would be to request Paypal to transfer the funds into my bank account. Do I have to email their customer service for this, or is there something within my Paypal account that I can manage to direct them to do that?
