Thanks for this review. I do want to ask if you would say what the dimensions are of the photos. The term "hi resolution" isn't precise enough. I've seen sites say "hi resolution" and the pics were 1024 pixels on the long end.
Thanks.

Drooler - I generally avoid any specific technical stuff simply because I really don't understand it. Photos aren't too bad, but with video I really don't understand the relationship between file size, bit rates and all that. The photos on this site are all 2376 x 1584. I hope that's the information you're looking for. If it isn't please let me know what you are looking for and where to find it and I'd be glad to provide it.

Thanks. I would never have known that the photos at the site were that large.
It's hard to know how large large enough is to qualify as "hi resolution," as people say. It depends on the user, the user's monitor, and just where the line can be drawn. Over the years, it's been a moving target, and an expanding one, too. It's pretty subjective.
Really, it would be more accurate for everyone to say "large dimension," because that's what really seems to count. (Resolution is dots per inch, but that's getting technical ...) It would be like asking people to stop using the word "literally" when there's no equivalent figure of speech.
But just knowing the dimensions is good enough. Thanks again.

REPLY TO #3 - Drooler :
Glad to help. With future reviews I'll include photo dimensions since those are a number I can sort of understand. Video will likely remain desribed in subjective terms since I haven't figured that out yet.
And the pictures look great too. Some of the picture sizes are quite large.

Another excellent review as always. I checked the site out again to see if you saw more updates but you still only see 18 videos on the preview pages. Their content is the same that can be found at smackmybitch but smack has significantly more content then 18x but it is twice the price of 18x. If they keep updating and retain this low price then they will be the site to join if you like these girls and videos.
If you are ever curious about the performers then visit ebi and simply search under smackmybitch to see which girls appears at that site. You'll be able to identify the girls from 18x and find out their more common name since 18x and smack use aliases for many of them.

Good review, although I disagree about unknown models. Their names change on every site but at least five of those on the preview page have shot for teen core club or teen sex movs. Anyhow, if you're not a crazy fan you wouldn't know this so it doesn't matter...what I wanted to ask was what bonuses does the site offer? I see that they have an ipod on the previews and they advertise chats and stuff like that, do you actually get any of it while inside?
Thanks for your review and help.

REPLY TO #6 - dracken :
dracken - you're right, many of these models are probably not as new as I think they are. I'm not very familiar with Eastern European / Russian porn so I may have made a bit of a fool of myself making that claim.
I don't recall seeing any available chats as bonus material. The sites seems a bit to simple to offer something like that. The only bonus material I saw was offered on two similar sites.

pat362 - I'll have to defer to you on this one. I have little experience in the world of Eastern European / Russian sites (and yes, I know that's starting to sound like an excuse...) and thought that this was new material.
My membership expired a couple of weeks ago and I've been watching the material since then. But you appear to be right. Since the last update I downloaded there appear to have only been two updates, unless there are more that aren't just shown on the front page. But that doesn't make sense. Maybe I got in and got out while the getting was good. I'll watch for any future reviews to see what others think.

There's been a general slowdown of updates on many European/Russian
sites in the last couple of months. The economy isn't picking up all that fast so eating takes precedence over porn as it should. I think many sites are suffering because of it and then you add all the tube sites. Hopefully they keep updating and retan that low price. The girls are really hot.

Pat - but shouldn't those big, bad webmasters think of the girls too??? They need to eat! Some of them are so skinny!
I hope they continue updating too. But since I only joined to get pics and video of "Natalie" everything else is gravy.

I'm pretty sure that Nathalie is sarah and I have quite a few videos of this cutie. I only wish she spoke English or at least had some dvd's that include actual scenario porn.

That sure looks like her. I'll check this out. Thanks for the tip. This might be a turning point in my porn downloading. Russia, here I come!

That Nathalie is a true slut. The first time I saw her, I thought she was lovely and pink and soft in a photoset, wearing an adorable smile, a white wrist band and a white-and-pink collar around her neck, and nothing else. But then I started seeing her on one site after another, banging away with boy after boy after boy. And my illusions were shattered, because I had thought she was waiting for me to show up, and I was forced to realize she was not really waiting after all. :)
The photography can make a huge difference in how attractive a girl appears. In that one photoset I first saw, Nathalie looked really cute. But in many of the photosets/videos of her I've seen since, she looks just OK to mildly attractive.
I really wish that more sites would pay more time and attention and care to making each girl as attractive as possible, in the photographs and videos. I don't think it would take that much more effort, as long as the photographer/video man was competent.

I don't know if it was just at the beginning of her career but I've often seen her under the name Benta. The one thing that seems to have remained constant with her is her looks. Some performer can look very different from one site to the other but she always looks about the same. Some sites make her look cuter but that could be because of proper makeup application and better lighting.

REPLY TO #14 - pat362 :
Sometimes when I mention that a photographer can make a girl look much better, by makeup, lighting, whatever, I get a response that "natural" is better, and that to some PU members, at least, the less makeup, photoshopping, the better: any change from the real model is for the worse.
But I definitely think, as long as it's not overdone (which is a highly personal opinion), makeup and lighting and good skin tone and colorful costume and other factors can make a huge difference in how attractive and erotic a model will be presented.
I think I started seeing this model maybe a year ago. One of the first sets I saw her in she was really cute (because of the lighting and other factors). Since then, I've seen her at many different sites, and she rarely looks as good as she did in that early photoset. It wasn't that she was wearing a lot of makeup: she just looked really cute or pretty.
Some models can look very different from one site to the next. But this model's only been here a very short time, so, if she doesn't age fast, change hair color or hair style, she is easily recognizable at the different sites.
A few porn models can last for 5-10 years or more, and they don't appear to age that much. Most models don't last anywhere near that long, but in a few years, they are already starting to look much older. The porn business can be very hard on some models, I think.

REPLY TO #15 - lk2fireone :
I think that the best phtographers in the world might be able to get away with the natural look but it depends on far too many parameters to say that it's always possible. I think the proper application of makeup and correct use of lighting can alter a models appearance to the point where she almost looks like someone else.
The strangest part about her career is that she has appeared on many websites but only did a few movies. I'm guessing that it has to be by choice because there is no way that a director would pass her up if she was willing to do movies.
She's Daisy at nubile and she almost looks underage in the picture. Mind you she was probably 18 at the time so she wasn't far from it.
I'm also including 3 other links from the same site so you ca compare the difference from one scene to the next.

For some reason I don't think she's in it for the long run and I'm never bothered when a performer chooses a life outisde of porn.

REPLY TO #16 - pat362 :
I was never very accurate guessing a person's age from looking at him or her.
A few porn models do have a very young appearance, and can still look like a teenager long after they are into their twenties.
Thanks for the links, but I can't really tell much difference in her appearance between the three scenes. The major difference, to me, is that she has a greenish white skintone in one because of the green paint on the walls:
http://picsgall3.tinseks.com/012/10/001/
I'm pretty sure she is also at the teenmegaworld network. But I don't know if I even bothered to download her material there, because I was signed up to too many different sites, and with a slow DSL connection, it takes a long time to download these large files. And when I download, I usually go for the high quality, so it can take 1-2 hours to download a single video file.
I really need to get a faster Internet connection.
Some of these video files are now over 1 GB, which is ridiculous. Especially when I find I don't even like the file, and delete it, after watching it partway through.
There are a number of videos at this current network, TonyBucks, that are 1 GB or more.
(TonyBucks includes tinseks, not 18xgirls.)

REPLY TO #17 - lk2fireone :
I think the major difference in this one(aside from the green tinge) is her hair style and she doesn't seem to be wearing any makeup and she's still beautiful.
http://picsgall3.tinseks.com/012/10/001/
I've never been good at guessing age either and as long as she's 18 than I don't need to. I'd hate to have older content from the days when some Countries had different legal porn ages. There is content out there of 16yrs old having sex and that content was legal then.
I have a very good internet connection and I can't complain about my download speed. It's my download limit that's bothering me. I'd love to be able to download big files and maybe one day I will but until then. I try to limit my video files to no bigger than 500Mb.
Even at that size I would eat up my alloted quota with only 50 scenes.

REPLY TO #18 - pat362 :
500MB x 50 scenes = 25 GB. If that's for 1 month, that would be a tiny download limit.
I joined a Japanese site about a year ago, that had a daily download limit of 12 GB. The photosets and videos only had 1 file size (no low or medium option, just the high quality was offered).
For downloading, my DSL connection maxes out at 150-160 KB/s. That's the best I can hit, and if I download more than 1 file at a time, the total download speed splits the 150 KB/s between the files. So it's no faster to download 2 files at the same time than to download a single file.
Anyway, even with 150-160 KB/s download speed, I could sometimes reach the 12 GB daily limit. Because the video files at that site were large (the photosets are much smaller, of course).
So I downloaded a bunch of videos and photosets, because there are some absolutely gorgeous Japanese porn stars.
But I haven't looked at a single one of those files since downloading them. Lol. And that was over a year ago.

REPLY TO #19 - lk2fireone :
Sorry, I wasn't very clear in my statement. My ISP limits me at a maximum of 100G of allowed download per month without surcharges. That's why I really dread the day most sites go Hi-Ddef. I can't afford to pay the cost of over downloading. I remember getting a bill of 400$ for one month of downloading. It was my fault because I knew I had a limit but the rules had just changed and I didn't pay attention to all the big video files I was downloading. I don't do that anymore. The first thing I always look at first are the size of the files. If they offer low, medium or Hi-Def then more than likely the medium file will win everytime.
