I finally made up my mind this weekend and decided to close my FP account. I emailed them Monday morning and asked what would be the best way to delete all my images and close the account.
They emailed me back that afternoon and told me that my images had been deleted, my account closed and my earnings, which were well below payout would be deposited in my paypal account.
They emailed me yesterday and said that the earnings had been deposited. When I check my paypal account, there they were, and had actually been deposited the day the account was closed.
Thank you FP. I had not expected to see the earnings from there.
