I just joined Dreamstime and uploaded a pic. In the agreement, I noticed this blurb...

I upload this image exclusively on Dreamstime.com. I acknowledge and warrant that I have read and agree with the Exclusivity Terms and Conditions and that I am able to enter such agreement, that this image is not represented by another agency and that I will not sell it somewhere else under a Royalty Free license.

I take it this means that I cannot upload and sell the same image on other sites like Shutterstock?

That's what it means if your give them exclusivity. However, that should be an option, not a requirement.

Most sites now offer a better rate if your give them an exclusive shot, but AFAIK no microsites require an exclusivity agreement.

..but some will ban you if you belong to microsites.

We were discussing micro sites, not macro ... also, I think Photographer's Direct is the only one which won't take you if you post to a micro site -- which might be illegal restraint-of-trade, but I don't particularly want to deal with folks with that attitude anyway so it's not my fight ...
