I don't really have TVs. I have A/V setups in 3 rooms with A/V recievers, Tivos, stream-capable Blu-Ray players, and game consoles. One setup is a dedicated A/V room with the setup bove, plus a PC, a projector and 12 foot projection screen.
The problem with TV and TV related services is that they are too clean. I can get PPV porn on any hotel TV, but not in my own home because Amazon and the other mainstream vendors won't carry it. Huge, huge, HUGE market opportunity when you consider what VCRs did for the industry.

Eh, it's more about the ability of the photography team than the location. Well..Although outdoors is usually fine, I'm not thrilled with the girl in the woods shoots where she pretends there is no photographer present or is partially hidden behind a tree.
A good photographer with a good model, good technique and a good demeaner with that model can successfully shoot anywhere.

I was in Vegas several years ago for business and the hotel was hosting some kind of porn convention. Can't recall what it was...maybe Vivid. Everybody had lanyards and badges, but I was able to walk right in because I had a lanyard and badge from my covention...nobody really looks at the things. Lots of toys, dolls, porn stars, etc. Remember Raquel Darrian? She was there. That pegs the timeframe. '92 maybe?

I am all for legalization and taxation at both the state and federal level. It would help the economy and allow the DEA to go after the heavy hitters dealing with the really bad stuff. Bot...
The only concern I have is the impact this would have on kids. For drinking, laws are strict and the impact of small amounts of alcohal on the development of kids brains is generally minimal (as proven by studies and by European countries that allow kids to drink). Don't bash me, but I am not convinced that pot does not have an impact on the development of young brains. As a kid in the 1970's I was 11 when I started smokong pot and was pretty much done with it by college. I do think it had an adverse affect on me. As a kid, I did not delineate much between pot and marginally more dangerous drugs like coke (the snorting kind back then, thank god), speed and quaaludes. (Adults, with a more developed sense of reason, can probably understand the difference and not leap to other drugs.) I also think legalization might make it easier for kids to get weed, especially if it were a common thing around the house (purses, top drawers, etc). Alcohol laws prevent an adult from giving alcahol to a minor, but do not prohibit kids from raiding the liquor cabinet and do not encourage parents to lock up the booze. And as somebody above mentioned, unlike alcohol, second hand pot smoke is still effective at giving somebody, kids included, a buzz.
So, although I'm in favor of it, there would need to be several safeguards in place that I'm not sure are there yet. Some combination of both alcahol and tobacco policies would need to be implemented.

The only non-digital I have could be considered collector stuff, "Oh God, She's Nude!" and similar, hidden away in a dusty box I last saw about a year ago. The best of my digital stuff, dating back more than 15 years now, is on a protected hard drive on one of 3 computers in the man cave. Older stuff and archives are on protected external drives stored away. Like any data, you can't exactly call it valuable, but it is worth backing up because it would be very expensive or impossible to replace.
Next good question: Do people have backups?

To each his/her own, I guess. When I look at a beautiful girl on a good site, at least one thought I have is how nice it would be to go down on her until she cums and says stop. But after seeimg a few shots of peeing, that thought vanishes. Now..on the other hand...I have been told that one of the reasons there is soo much pee on the lesbian sites is because the photographers are tellig the girls to imagine themselves peeing on the tens of thousands of guys who are getting off seeing them naked. So if you see a girl peeing, she was probably fantasizing about peeing on YOU!

| Pros: |
Fantastic quantity of material. The girls are all very young, say, under 25. Newer videos are excellent and in HD. Newer photo sets come in high resolution. The girls appear to be having genuine fun. They use ample amounts of oil, lotion, various types of fruits and vegtables and many, many types of battery operated devices. Sets are dated and are available all the way back to 2006. |
| Cons: |
Navigation is not as good as other sites. (For example, you can't scroll through the images in a set but have to page back out to the set menu and select the next image.) About 1 in 4 releases are actually re-releases of older material dating back as far as 2001...OK if you are a first time member but not if you are back for the 2nd or 3rd time. The narrow range of girl types, sets and specific types of odd fetish shots makes the site a little monotonous after a while. The girls wear very little or no make-up, making some that are solid 10s at other sites about a 7 here. Many of the newer models are not as attractive as models from prior years. |
| Bottom Line: |
OK, bottom line? This is a lesbian and fetish site that is interesting to visit once just to see the show, but it caters to a relatively narrow taste. Nearly every girl is young, petite, small breasted and, of course, shaved. On the surface, that's not at all bad. Many of the girls from older sets and a few from newer ones are truly beautiful. A few headliners like Caprice, Malena Morgan and Franzeska, are easily recognizable from other sites even without much make-up. But the majority of recent girls are not particularly memorable and at best rate a notch above amatuer. Maybe after years of visiting this site I'm a little jaded. I apologize in advance if what I'm about to say seems harsh. The success of the site must mean that many people like the signature items they provide. Here are a few of those signature items:
1. There are NO boy/girl sex scenes. None. Lots of girl/girl scenes, though.
2. Practically every model gets fisted at some point. If you like that, this is paraadise.
3. There is an odd fascination with the inside of otherwise unviewable areas on the female anatomy. Examples include almost every model agreeing to use a speculum so you can see what her uturus looks like. Many models agree to use what looks like an ambroidery hoop with clothes pins spreading the labia to provide a more detailed view (think dental headgear for the pussy). Some models use glass tubes allowing a view deep inside the rectum. I guess folks are into that. I find it niether sexy, nor flattering. In a word, it makes the models clinical.
4. Just about every model has to pee at some point. The photographers show you exactly when that is.
5. Ladies, care to have your nipples, clitoris or entire vagina vacuum pumped? Yep, they do that here!
6. The first time I saw a set where a model put a lollipop in her vagina I thought it was interesting and might be tasty. That was about 100 lollipops ago. Now I find myself wondering what flavor the odd color lollipop they use is.
7. This is not a glam site. As such, the girls don't really wear much make-up. You get to see every pimple, freckle, sore, scar and bruise, whether it is on a face, a leg or a butt.
8. Allsscan has a sister site called allsangels. The webmaster/owner has no qualms with showing you a set of girls from auditions in his blog and picking out the more attractive girls to send over to ALSANGELS in an effort to sell you membership in that site much smaller for $25 a month. Sorry, all it does for me is piss me of that these better looking girls should have been but aren't on the site I'm a member of.
Ok, before you send me a nasty email, let me put a thought in your head. ALSSCAN is a bit of a sideshow. Sideshows have an odd combination of allure and freakiness that makes you want to go in to see what is there. I've seen this particular show about 5 times since the late 1990s and every few years I find myself wandering back in to see what the next big thing is going to be. (This time I think it is those emroidery hoop-clothespin things....)
Now, it is clear that the photographers have a tremendous rapport with the models as the models are usually having tremendous fun. I think this is because the models are not forced to please the camera so much. (heck, they hardly even LOOK at the camers.) Instead they are encouraged to please themselves and any other girls that happen to be nearby..and perhaps they are encouraged to experiment. Some of the best photo sets and videos come from annual outings where a dozen or so girls are chosen to go to a tropical island. Once there, they can run around naked and generally have sex with any girl they want...and they do.
So, again, bottom line...interesting place to visit but you might not want to stay for more than a month. |

Hi,
Just so you know, I'm not complaining at all about the way the trial was described at TBP. I am complaining about the way it was abused by the site. TBP was told the trial included three partial videos. OK, the site lied. I was charged the upcharge upon the third CLICK on the site. I saw one girl, returned to main, clicked on another. BAM! No warning or explanation of any kind! I was on the site for less than 45 seconds before they hit my credit card for $39.95! That's what I consider inexcusable... Would you accept that kind of crap from Amazon? What about Met Art? Would you tolerate a live chat site that didn't delineate between free and pay links and arbitrarily charged your card for browsing? No? Of course you would not. No reputable web site of any kind would rip off a customer like that if they EVER cared about that customer enough to want to see them again. Well, they will never see ME again! OK, I'm done.
You set this PU site up so people could give their honest opinion about the sites visited. This is my honest opinion.

| Pros: |
Some of the net's most beautiful imagery
Many, many US models you've heard of.
Some files back to 2003 and beyond
Zip files in many sizes for most sets, some up to 3000k.
Many videos now in 720P
Good layout and consistent navigation
Many of the best US models in the industry have their roots here.
Very good variety of models, most of whom have exceptional proportions.
The download process isn't bad if you aren't trying to download every image on the site.
It seems like they may be rescanning older 35mm sets in higher resolution when they re-release them, but I can't tell for sure.
Some content goes back as far as 2003. That's ALOT of images.
No cross selling!
For the price, you can't go wrong. (Part of why I rate them so high) |
| Cons: |
Site seems a bit slow to load compared to others
Recycling of old images cheats number of new releases.
Only 1 release per day and almost ALL of them are re-releases. (Less than 1 new set per week)
Quantity of new releases really seems to be dropping (Quality is good, though).
No original dates on sets so you can't tell if it is old. Chance are very good that it is.
Older videos in 480P or less and with no original dates for the models, you can't tell until you click down. |
| Bottom Line: |
Important bits:
Mostly solo scenes with a few very good girl/girl softcore scenses (good because the girls are usually into each other and not just standing there.)
No boy/girl scenes that I recall.
Very few toys....but a reasonable number of fingers.
Good mix of outdoor and indoor scenes. These guys love sunlight (a very good thing for the images and girls, apparently) so many of the indoor sets are actually set up outdoors.
Nothing hardcore, but if you are the type that likes "unobstructed views", there are a lot of those.
Sorry, but I can't just bullet point this one. There's somehow more to it. As a frame of refgerence, my taste is for well done images.
This site has an ambiance about it that is somehow different from the the other, mostly european softcore sites. One of the fun things is looking at how the girls are transformed from the initial Audtion shoot. When they come in, they are good looking and trim. For the shoots, most are OMFG awesome! Now, it takes a good model to make this formula work. A good recent example of this is Amber Sym. In the audtion shots, she is hot, with a well toned, cheerleader type body. In the photo sets, she is simply ungodly beautiful.
Many models shoot stills well, but are really awkward in videos. The folks at DD (I still want to call it DDG) really know how to shoot video to bring out the grace and beauty in a girl. There are dozens of examples like this.
Another thing this site does is understand what the typical male, um, comes here for. I think the word I would use to describe these types of sets is Inviting. The models are aware of the photographer and use that element to tease or play with the camera a little in a very subtle way. Imagine if a really hot girl said to you "Hey, I'm going to take my clothes off and maybe fool around with myself a little. Stick around and watch if you want because that makes it more interesting for me." It is subtly different from how the European sites do it. "Flirt" sets even have th egirls talking at you...but sometimes less is more. Very good directing on the photography team's part.
Most of the sets include an ample number of really nicely (as in tastefully) done close-ups. And sometimes there is a tiny bit of Astroglide..I guess..in the right place to make things more interesting. It seems somehow more personal...sharing...inviting than the "girl frolicking in the woods" shoots you see elsewhere.
Another subtle thing that makse the experiance nicer is that there is very little cross selling or other advertising going on. This is a freestanding site, so you get what you get. It just seems so much more respectful of my time and privacy to NOT be mentioning that there are also sets of this girl on the blah-blah-blah sister site. (Compared to, say, Met-Art, that accosts you with ads for sister sites.) I guess the reason they don't have more cross-selling is because nobody else does some things the same way that they do. Kudoos for both.
Once a set appears (or re-appears) they are placed into specific categories that you can browse through. Categories include Dreamgirls, XXX Stars, Young and Fresh, Flashback, Interviews, etc. This helps if you are searching for a particular look or Genre, but it appears that they are not producing a lot of new material for many of these categories.
Now that you can tell that I'm clearly enamored with the models and photography, let me tell you a few of the more frustraing things about this site.
It is slooooow, mostly slow for pages to load. Downloads seem to be about average in speed. Not sure what that is about.
As I mentioned above, many of the older sets get recycled, apparently more than once. I don't have a major issue with that as many sites do it, but this site passes them off as new every time they come back around (sometimes multiple times). Fricking QUIT THAT! Introduce them in a different category and include the original dates for the shoots as well as the original dates for the models introduction to the site. Yes, some of the sets are the best they've ever done and deserve to be re-introduced (take a look at Alyssa Lovelace, for example), but re-datestamping them is just plain wrong. It destroys the model timelines and, at best, seems deceptive.
And here's another thing. As I looked back through my 12+ year collection of DDG/DD images, I noticed that a lot of material from the late 1990s and early 2000s is no longer there. Some of it is big-hair and bushy, but a lot of it is completely timeless. You should consider putting more of the images back on the site in the appropiate area so your subscribers can enjoy them.
Ok, bottom line. If you are into softcore, this is absolutely, positively one of the sites to visit as there is over a decade's worth of material. If you were here less than a year ago, there is not much new content, but it might be worth it to visit for the new lower price. |

| Pros: |
Erotic Beauty, formerly MetModels, leans a little more toward old-style softcore nude photos in natural settings. The models are generally not mainstream, so you find a few that are very interesting and different. The site is billed as "Naturally Beautiful amatuer nudes" which probably says it better than I can. |
| Cons: |
Hmm. Can't quite put my finger on it.... a little slow, maybe. Nothing major wrong. |
| Bottom Line: |
This is a really good amatuer nude site. It is good because the photography is good, the models are generally attractive and typically squeeky clean (can't tell if they are photoshopped..), and there is a tremendous quantity of stuff going back to 2005. And remember, this USED to be the site where the Met-Art network put its most beautiful models so even the old stuff is pretty good. (The new stuff is good, too!) Many of the sets are outside.
Navigation is average or a little better than average. You can search by model, most popular, date, etc. Images do not open in a new window, so you have to remember that if you are used to some of the other sites like this.
There is a HUGE variety of models here, all apparently european. They are also all natural. I don't recall a single enhancement. And the models mostly seemed to be enjoying themselves, or at least comfortable with the set and the photographer.
I got into the site this time on a $12.50 special because I was already a member of Met-Art.
Absolutely worth a visit, especially if you like natural nude photography. |

| Pros: |
This is the second best site in the Met-Art network behind Met-Art itself. Very large volume of high quality images of truly beautiful women in natural indoor and outdoor settings. See details below. |
| Cons: |
Nothing much in the way of cons as long as you remember it is a nude modelling site. No hardcore here! |
| Bottom Line: |
This site rates up there with the best nude photography sites on the Internet. Tons of photo sets (not much video, though), many, many different models of all shapes and sizes. The collection dates all the way back to 2004 and even the stuff from back then is top notch. And many of the models you know now were on this site before they were anywhere else...although sometimes with different names. With 10 YEARS of stuff, it is a lot of fun looking. (At least 1 new set a day, 50 images per set, that's 3600+ sets and 180,000 imaegs!)
Navigation is good for a site this large. You can search by model or rating or month. Images appear in the same tab, though, so remember to go back rather than close (I wish they would make this more consistent across the Met-Art network..)
Small, medium and large zip files are available for every set since 2004 (although "large" wasn't that large in 2004)
The girls all appear to be comfortable with the photograper. There is a really good mix of full body and close up shots here and, unlike many similar sites, most of the girls are not shy and don't mind, um, showing us the money.
There is a new set every day. Very few of them are continuations of earlier sets and there does not seem to be any common location where the majority of shoots are done. There is a wide variety of photographers and they all have slightly different styles, locations and models. Once in a great while, they will release a much older set, but unlike some other sites, I don't think they are re-releasing anything. For example, a set came out earlier this year of Marketa when she was relatively young. The set may have been 8 years old, but it had never been released anywhere before as far as I could tell. Contrast this with DDG or Earl Miller, who fairly consistently re-release older stuff.
All sets come in 3 sizes ranging from small to extra-large but the size depends on the age of the set. Recent images are 6000x4000 or so, large enough to be lifesize if printed out at 72dpi. And most images actually look good at that kind of resolution.
Now, if you are looking for ANYTHING other than straight images of unbelieveably beautiful girls, then this might not be the site for you. There are a very few lightweight girl/girl scenes, but there are no sex scenes, no insertions, very little masturbation, no true sex on this site. There may be a few unusual sets from prior years (maybe a girl with her hands tied or something), but this is a 99.9% nude girls site.
I got in this time on a discount because I was a member of Met-Art. Once in Met-Art, it was just $12.50 to join additional sites in the network. Well, I'm dropping the lesser met-art network sites but will keep this one for at least another month or two.
As I mentioned above, overall this is one of the best nude photography sites on the net. Every time I log in, I find myself surfing the site for an hour or more. I don't think I've ever been dissapointed with this site...and for me...that says a lot.
Go check it out! |

Khan,
Very good point. I also (directly) got a rather agitrated email from Patrik, who is apparently one of the webmasters at Eva's Garden. You are correct and Patrick is correc, to a point. This computer is still running Windows XP, and Internset Explorer only goes to 8 on XP. I did not think to try Chrome. I just did and the images do in fact show up and allow me to save in jpg format. Oddly, though, in Chrome, when you click on an image the little preview does not show up. I have to click on the "enlarge" link to doenload the file (again, this file IS in jpg format). I am going to diagnose my computer but plan on updating it shortly to W7.
I've run into a handful of sites that simply don't like Internet Explorer of any version. I suspect this has somethign to do with the server software itself or perhaps with what some people believe is Microsofts quite effort to make Windows XP perform so poorly that people will have to upgrade. IN any case, you and Patrik are correct in that the BMP problem is due in part to my own IE browser.

04-08-12 06:17pm (Update History)
Reason: corrections and updates
|
| Pros: |
Girls are generally very attractive. The site includes the typical collection of European girls that are on other (softcore/glam) sites, but there are also a few that are unique to this site. Image quality is high. Video quality is generally high. Tech support response to my issue was practically instantaneous. |
| Cons: |
site navigation is not up to par with many other similar sites. Page refresh and image downloads are nat very fast. Zip file image naming structure is absolutely infuriating! (ie every set has an image named 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, making downloaded image management impossible! Saved images in older IE browsers appear to be only BMP, not JPG., making them much larger than they need to be for both downloading and storage. (Google Chrome and other browsers are probably fine) |
| Bottom Line: |
Overall, this is a pretty nice site, but it is not up to par with the best-of-class (i.e. Met-Art, Femjoy, Erotica Archive, etc.) This applies in four areas. First, the navigation of the site is ok, but not great. You can't, for example, sort the models based on user rating. Even sorting by name is a little clumsy. Second, actually downloading files is truly painful.
Once you are in a set, clicking on an image opens a small thumbnail. To open an image large enough to download, you have to click on an icon below each image. When downloading ZIP files, there are no model name or set references, just numberd image files starting at 1. The only workaround to this is to create folders for each set. Very frustrating as there is no reference to the model, the set name, anything in the zip files. ...where was I.. Oh, the third and fourth things are the models and photography. The models are attractive, but there is something a little off about either the models, the shoots or the sets. The only way to describe this is that it appears nobody is having a good time. Very few geniune smiles, little laughter, no conversation at all in the videos. Not much fun. In many of the sets, out of dozens of pictures, there are only a few where the model looks like she is even remotely enjoying herself. Compare this with, say, Femjoy. It is the interaction with the photographer, or somebody else on the set maybe, that brings out the absolute best images in the models. So the models on Eva's Garden may be beautiful, but the images are not engaging. I compared many of the same models between this and other sites. Something is just not as good here. These girls should be surface-of-the-sun hot. They are on other sites. Somehow, not as much here. There are a few outstanding sets and OMG models, but many, as I said above, are a little off. Oh, and the fourth thing, is the sets. Out of the dozens of sets I've looked at so far, and probably hundreds of overviews, nearly all of them are indoors in carefully controlled lighting. A few are outdoors on a cloudy day or under a covered awning. Many images are shot with what appears to be a wide angle lens(probably to increase the depth of field and get more of the model in focus), but the result is a distorted image. I've never seen this on any other site. The indoor sets vary, of course, but the lack of variety contributes to an almost monotonous feel to the site. I never thought a website full of naked beautiful women could be monotonous. Apparently, I was wrong. If you have not already been to one of the top softcore/glam sites, I suggest you try those before you try Eva's Garden. This site is nice, but just not top tier in the genre. |

My subscription was through newnudecash (who, as it turns out, is really CCBILL!). Once I logged in I was able to go to support and click on "How do I cancel a subscription". From there, a pop-up appeared with the link to the cancellation screen. I entered my username and password and got a message that said "your subscription has been cancelled. Welcome back in the future!" Kind of an odd process, but it worked. Before I cancelled, I went to ccbill and entered in my card number and email address and hegre-art was there. As soon as I cancelled (in the site) and refreshed the ccBill page, it showed cancelled. So it looks like you can cancel using either the ccBill page or within the website.

Good question. I had to go look to find out. It looks like all of the girls in the massage videos and still shots are already naked and oiled up by the time the shoot starts. A few models have sets called something like "before the massage" where they get oiled up. Most often, though, the "before" sets are images, from every angle, of the girl laying there. As I was just looking through the site, it dawned on me that the vast majority, like 90%, of shoots start out and end with the girls completely naked. It depends a little on the model, but very few of them have any clothes on at all. Ever. For example Little Caprice has 40 sets. She has a corset on in 2 sets, a pair of jean shorts in one set and panties or a bathing suit in 1 or two other sets. So maybe 35 out of 40 sets contain nothing but a completely naked Caprice. Melissa Mendini has 35 sets and she has a swimsuit or a shirt or something on, very briefly, in about 6 of those sets. 44 sets of the beautiful and now retired Marketa. Maybe 8 of those sets have any covering at all. Anna S, one of the nearly-exclusive models and one of the most beautiful models I have ever seen, has over 100 photo and video sets. She is completely naked in about 82 of them. I'm not sure but maybe the point the photographer is trying to make is that these girls are such fine examples of the female form that they don't need to hide anything. So....if you like sets where the girls strip, there are not many of those here. Sorry for the long answer.

| Pros: |
hegre-art.com is a spectacular erotic photography (softcore) site with some interesting and remarkable features. The girls are beautiful and the photography is always stunning. Most of the imagery is excellent, but the signature component to this site is probably the very well done erotic massage and tantra massage shoots and videos. Navigation is generally very good and the images come in a wide range of sizes up to 10,000k. The models are predominantly european, with a few well known US names mixed in. Oh, and the site is an excellent value for the money compared to other similar sites. |
| Cons: |
Couple of small things. First, it is too difficult to get to the larger images for each set and when they load, you cannot move through them because they each load to a separate page. The page-back navigation is a little clunky, too, as it usually does not immediately take you back to where you were before. Oh, and I was completely unable to get the site to work on Internet Explorer 9, although it works fine on Chrome. Something about cookies, I think. Not a hige deal as I use several browsers but it might be for others. Generally, if you can get into the previews, you can get into the site. |
| Bottom Line: |
This site is dominated by really well done single model erotic photo shoots and softcore single-model videos, but most of the models are absolutely beautiful and the photography is among the best on the planet. The models are probably mostly 20-30 with a few really outstanding 18 year-olds. I think the point here is that this is NOT a teen or hard core site. It pays homage to the best of the female form. The models are all shapes, sizes, ethnicities and colors, but generally very shapely (probably some of the best breasts on the net here.) There is full nudity, but many models are conservitive, meaning they don't all do close-ups, spread eagles, etc. There are very few sex scenes and I can't recall a single toy or vibrator on the entire site. There are a lot of beach scenes and a handful of group shots where it appears a gang of girls was rounded up and shipped off someplace exotic for photo shoots. The result is more of a veuyers nude-beach fantasy than a photo shoot intended solely to get you off.
Perhaps another, much more esoteric way to put it is that this site is like a fine wine store. You can get a great buzz on fine wine, but part of the experience is appreciating the wine as you do. If you are just looking to get drunk quickly, go to the liquor store and buy some mad-dog. If you can appreciate this analogy, this site may be right for you. If not, skip it and go straigth to a hard-core site.
The signature item for the site is erotic massage, basically taking a beautiful girl, covering her with oil and giving her a professional massage, complete with happy ending. These are nicely and professionaly done, with no talking, no artificial moaning and no acting involved. Lookout, though, there are a few of these sessions with men.
Navigation is generally very good, with the option for thumbs, slides or something called journal, which takes all the images in a set and stacks them at roughly screen size.
There are, according to the site, over 200,000 images in 3300 galeries. The collection dates back as far as 2002. The images from that timeframe, although generally good quality and consistent with the theme of the web site, are small by today's standards at about 2000x1320 max.
The site seems to use mostly eastern european models with a few nearly exclusive resident models. Look up Anna S, an apparently French stunner, or Luba, a long-time regular.
If you are into large images, this site has some of the largest and best on the net, some as large as 7500x10000 pixels (That's close enough to see pores or over 11 feet tall at 72dpi!). Do you want a lifelsize image of Melissa Mendini standing against a white wall in nothing but high heels for the back of your closet door? (assuming you can print it.) Well, here's the place to get it and many, many more like that. The only problem is that you can't get to these large images via the thumbs. You have to go to slides, click through the slides, preview the image you are interested in and then choose the size. You can also go to the journal, wait for all the images to load, then scroll down and choose your size from there. There are, on average, about 6 sizes per image ranging from very small to larger-than-life. Older sets have almost-as-large-as-life images.
I would recommend this site to anyone who is tired of the teenybopper or hardcore porn sites and is just looking for some really beautiful women to look at for a while. I would also recommend this site to anyone who likes Met-Art, or Femjoy.
I hope this was useful! Trust me if so! |

Looks like I need to keep looking around. There is one bonus site that isn't bad called Ariel Rebel. Although I don't recall seeing the girl before, the solo site has Recent updates, decent vidos, etc.

OK, I'm an idiot. I even sent an email off to Met-Art about the "Christina" problem above. Then as I was trying it again, I realized the girls name is CRISTINA! SO....operator error on my part. Apologies. (I would delete the whole comment, but comments on reviews can only be edited for 10 minutes after writing them.) I would still like to see an auto-login feature when traversing between paid sites in the same network.

Thought I would add a little here. I DID finally go ahead and join the other sites in the network. There is a special to join them for $12.50 USD each once you join Met Art. Those annoying links referencing other sites are still there, but when I click on one, I am not automatically logged in to the other site. So I then have to log in and when I do, all reference to the girl I was following from the original site is gone. In one case today, there is a link from Met Art to Christina A on Erotic Beauty. I followed the link and saw the beginning of a set but was required to log in before seeing it all. I logged in and, of course, the site lost track of why I logged in and sent me to the home page. I then searched for Christina A. NO SUCH GIRL! So the links trying to get you to sign up to the other sites in the network REALLY ARE BAITING YOU! In this case, to a girl that doesn't even exist on the destination site (or who goes by a different name with no way to find her). I will give the webmaster the benefit of the doubt and hope they are just not aware of how broken (and annoying)this is, but I really hope it is fixed before I write my reviews on the other sites in this network.

| Pros: |
Top rated softcore site
Some of the most beautiful models ON EARTH!
Spectacular imagery and sets
4-6 updates PER DAY!
Good navigation |
| Cons: |
Only one thing in the CON category:
obnoxious cross-selling to the other sites in the network.
One minor annoyance: The user defined keywords are not particularly useful. |
| Bottom Line: |
This is without a doubt one of the best softcore sites on the internet. The models are spectacular, the sets are great, the clothing, hair and make-up are usually perfect, the variety is great and the girls generally look like they are having a good time. Nothing cheap or poorly done anywhere, period. Navigation is also very good.
There are several exclusive or nearly exclusive models on this site that words cannot describe. FOr example: Mila, with 44 sets, always looks like she is enjoying herself. Fergie, with only 16 sets, is a little more conservative but can melt ice with her looks. Wait...loking at the site while writing a review can be very distracting....
OK, there is rally only one negative that I'm going to mention here and it is more of a customer service thing than a fault with the site. It seems that Met Art is now part of a network which includes Sex Art, the Life Erotic, Errotica Archives and Erotic Beauty. Unlike many other networks, you have to join each oif these sites separately. OK, I can appreciate that the owners want to maximize revenue. I can even appreciate that some owner/photographers hire a model for a day or a weekend trip, shoot many, many sets and then break the sets up over multiple sites, again, to maximize revenie (Met-Art and Met-Models, now Erotic Beauty, comes to mind) What I find offensive is that in Met-Art, when you look at a set of a model, a section sometimes appears at the bottom of the set that says something like "more of this model:' with a bunch of images that are links. Well, the links are NOT WITHIN THE MET ART SITE. They are links to offers to join one of the other sites in the network where more images of this model supposedly exist. It is one thing to list other sites on the model page, but it is simply obnoxious baiting to put a clickable image of the model at the bottom of the page and only include a small reference to the name of the other site. This is the only site I've ever seen that uses this relatively deceptive practice and I absolutely hate it. (Can you tell?)
Now, in-spite of that trashy cross-selling tactic, the guys at met-art are gracious enough to discount the other sites once you join one. And, to be fair, these sites appear to have plenty of unique sets spread around to each of the sites.
So...if you have not yet been to this site and want some seriously great softcore imagery and video to add to your collection, Met-Art is a MUST. I come back every year and will probably succomb to the cross-selling and try one or more of the other sites...and will review them when I do, of course! |

Apparently they WERE telling me to screw off since future sign-up is "no longer an option". Here's the final message I got from the webmaster. You have to wonder what people are thinking in terms of marketing when there are public review forums like this. Was it retaliation for writing the comments? I don't know. It's just very dissappointing. And I'd bet that they never even try to replicate the problem I outlined.
Hello,
No disrespect intended and no justification is necessary on either end. Our site is not a good fit for you. We both recognize that. Your $19.95 has been promptly refunded
Future signup is no longer an option. As I said earlier, we're sorry it was so difficult for you. Login authentication is not supposed to be a complicated, frustrating experience.

Hi,
Well, I’m more than a little disappointed that you just closed my account and refunded my money, but I suppose that is your prerogative. The reason I contacted ccBill and not you was that I really wasn’t expecting anyone to respond to me from your site at 1:00 in the morning. Usually, ccBill can reset locked passwords and even change them and I know they are there 24/7.
