+1178 updates (mostly galleries; a few videos) from Dec. 2004 to present
+All-exclusive to April 2007, then it starts to mix.
+623 different models, mostly European, many of them lovely
+From Oct. 2005, often has pics sized at least at 3000px, along with smaller pics at 1200px. “Hi rez” sometimes even 5000px.
+Zips
+Good download speed at 2MB/second
+Search feature: drop-down lists of names, ages, countries, and hair colors.

+Membership includes JustTeenMovie
+Very good visitor’s browsing preview of updates and models
+Overall quality continues to improve |
| Cons: |
-Pricey, with no trial
-Claims at the bottom of visitor’s home page to be “100% Exclusive.” Not true, but see the bottom line.
-Inconsistent updating; has taken as much as a week for new updates to show.
-Zips are only of the large pic size.
-Large/“hi-rez” pics usually at 1200px until around Oct. 2005 (2-3000px).
-Older, 2004-05 content too often has poor image quality
-Some pics have the usual problems such as blurriness, excessive backlight and forward shadowing, low lighting, stupid poses, goofy props, etc.
-“Country” in search feature lists only Ukraine, Russia, and Czech Republic. So they made Czechs out of Austrian Crystal Klein and Hungarian Eve Angel, etc. (Will this affect their tax situation?)
-Once you’re logged in as a member, you have to take care to mouse around their EXTREMELY ANNOYING “Live Cams!” link which constantly animates in the top right corner.
-Problem with customer support e-mail (see my comment and the reply) |
| Bottom Line: |
Maybe you could say that the real “salad era” for this site was from Oct. 2005 to April 2007, when all of the pics were large and exclusive. But it’s not that simple.
The first non-exclusive content I can identify is Marketa Belonoha, April 23, 2007, which I’d seen in lower quality at the highly dismissable Viewpornstars. From that point forward, there are at least 31 non-exclusive photosets that I’ve seen elsewhere. (Not counting redundant videos.)
I don’t see this as such a bad thing because the image quality is sometimes better and the pics are nearly always larger than at the other sites: KarupsPC, MyGlamourSite, TeenDreams, SexyBabes, Watch4Beauty, VirtualGirl, and VivThomas. (But at least you can download zips of smaller pics at those other sites.)
Besides, what has been non-exclusive in 2008, for instance, is only about 10% or less of the total output so far.
But that total output is waning. Here are the update totals per year:
2004: 10
2005: 152
2006: 400
2007: 362
2008: 254
Even if they updated once per day for the rest of this year (87 days), which I doubt, they’d end up with 341 for 2008 – less than last year. And that’s with the higher $34.95 price in 2008. (It was $24.95 in 2005 and $29.99 in 2006-07.)
And sure, it DOES include the video site now, but I joined it for a 6-month subscription before they added that and started slowing down on the photo updates. See, I'm a pic fan, which is why I joined! I'm not as happy with the site as I used to be.
And I’m scoring it as fairly as I can from that perspective. |

| Pros: |
The images here, especially the hi-res images are about as good as you'll find on the internet!!
The videos are smooth and well encoded.
The models are natural and flawless, which is pretty useful considering the 2,592 x 3,872 pixels image size.
The posing and the settings are great, well lit and fashionably chosen clothing. There is some very good use of form and natural lighting, the outside sets show this well.
The sets are basically solo and girl-girl. |
| Cons: |
To be fair the site is rated as 'softcore' and this is what you get. Its very gentle and hardly a finger strays where it perhaps ought.
The posing puts you into the frame of mind where one 'likes' the models rather than 'lusts' after them. |
| Bottom Line: |
A great photographic site with proper high res-images. Its softcore (as it says on the tin).
A few well chosen and well placed toys would lift this site to stratospheric heights. |

*Newbie reviews and ratings don't count toward a site's overall score/rank until the user reaches the Rookie status level (5 points). This rule is needed to help prevent fake (or heavily biased) profiles and reviews.
