Thank you! I think what is best for me may be to start on lower commission and more popular sites than smaller sites with higher commissions. I probably need to see sales to continue to try in the field.

Wow, this is very interesting conversation, thanks you! Yes, I am TWAC (traveller with a camera), I don't see me going travel a lot just for pictures for sale.

The fact is that the site(s) that sell(s) a lot (to low price) sell 500 times more that the sites that sell (almost nothing) to high price
So
Depends totally on the image type, or so I'm hearing off here.
I'm certainly not hearing 500x very often, so your images must really suit their buyers, which is great.
500x is not real of course, it is just a way of saying.
But 250 is close to a real figure, in my case, as I sold nothing on the "Low Earners" except PD and only on DP for the "Middle Tiers"
About the Top Tier my sales, in term of money, are almost equivalent for FT iS and DT, and 10 times more on SS.
I am very new on stocks, I have begun 3 months ago but I am operative only for a little more than one month, so probably my "numbers and opinions" cannot make good statistics 
HOw many pictures did you uploaded to the sites? You are on 5 sites?

THank you. i have many very unique pictures, but many from asian countries like japan and thailand that don't have a millino pictures out there, but then again there's a limit of how many people will look for them by name. good info, thanks. are there certain sites that are better for travel then others?

Thanks. very interesting. the reason i ask is because I have limited time to post pictures - i cannot post to 30 sites, so I wondered what is better - the ones that sell a lot or the ones that earn more. obviously the best would be to be on a site that sells a lot with high commissions, tho i like what Shady Sue said about less copies out there.

When you choose where to sell your photos, what do you prefer - high commissions or more sales? Obviously selling 10 photos and earning $1 is the same as selling 1 photo and earning $10, but which is better? I see most people have their photos on a few sites, that's why I ask how you make your choose.

I take trips few times a year. i just was in asia now and i have beautiful pictures that i take. my question is travel photos popular? if i post, should i bother tag with the name of place? do people look for name of place? or just say "girl play with dog on sea" or something that describe pictures? sunset in australia or sunset on great ocean road?

Very obvoius that people here have second job, but peolpe have different income from the stock sites. that is very nice.
Really? It isn't obvious to me. Just over half the people in the poll report having a second job. 
Yes now it is half half :-)

I am wondering if you can work full time with selling stock photography on internet and how many of you (us) do. Is it possible to earn enough for living or do you need to do another side job to make sure you work enough?
thank you!
ps i know it takes time to be able to work full time if to work at all full time.

Thank you everyone for answer. I know you can withdraw to paypal, but then my money is stuck in paypal and i cant use it except ebay. id on't want to take chance that my account be blocked and i lose money (I have paypal account already, but only use to pay). I like moneybookers but not all companies offer moneybookers either. still very good option. Some agencies offer Payoneer, which is a prepaid cash card managed by Mastercard; would that work for you?
Not the cheapest (they charge maintenance fees and for cash withdrawals from ATMs) but if it's your only option...
I have not hueard of payonner. you know it? good company? i see it has big alexa rank, but that does not mean much.
