- Large-ish opaque watermark in lower right cornor on all pics and some vids
Bottom Line:
The bottom line here is that this site initially comes across as being in the same general family as 1byday or Pixandvideo but it's really more the red headed step child as it ain't getting, or giving, enough love and is stuck with the second tier material.
When you log in you can view the material by model directory, some general categories or the monthly calendar layout. The model directory is incomplete so it's easiest to view by the calendar. You don't know if a certain day is a pic or vid unless you hold your browser pointer over it (files ending in F = photo, V = vid and A = both although there are very few pics to see in these). There were also a few other technical glitches I came across but nothing too bad.
Click on a day and new window pops up (must turn off pop-up blocker). Then you select the vid size or photo. Sometimes you get another window, sometimes not. This makes it ill sutied to DL managers. Don't open any other windows or make browser changes because you'll be logged out. Don't leave the site unattended for more than 10 minutes or you get logged out. After a few hours you'll get logged out. Each time you have to circle back to where you left off.
Photos. Most of the photos are nonexclusive except for the photos that have matching vid sets (most sets don't have pics and vids, just one or the other). The nonexclusive stuff ranges from the older and more obscure stuff not many have seen to the stuff on every megasite. Some of the nonexclusive stuff gets pixeled at the 1600 level. The exclusive sets can be incomplete in comparison to the vids and are smaller (most come in at around 60 to 80 pics). There are some HD pic sets (3500x2300) but you'll be pressed to find more than 20 per set and they download seperately and copy the the regular resolution pics of the set so it's more of a novelty than an attraction.
Videos. The vids are pretty good except for the first few months were quality is average. Pretty much all the vids come in up to 512 or 640 wmv and the download speeds are OK. The quality on the vids is generally better than the pics and there are more vids than photo sets on this site. There are more HD vids with the newer material (2008).
The updates (daily) vary. Some months you get a bunch of pics, others a bunch of vids. When the photo and vid sets match, the "mate" set can be weeks or months apart.
The actors are all euro models except for some of the nonexclusive stuff. Most of the women are attractive but not many total hotties like the more premium sites. It claims to be brutally HC but there's really nothing too brutal about it but there is some anal and dp action.
Overall, the site isn't bad considering the price and the amount of content. If you can get over the technical issues it's not bad but the quality does vary, especially on pics. I wanted to give a higher score when I first joined but for now an 83 seems appropriate in my book.
*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.

Just joined Only3x and so far it isn't bad but it isn't great. Lots of big pics and vids but some of the more recent content is nonexclusive material everyone's seen before. I'm more of a picture guy and for me there aren't enough pics, there's incomplete sets for the nonexclusive material and a lot of movies don't have accompanying pic sets. Navigation isn't so hot but it's tolerable. The vids are pretty good though and download speeds are good. At $15 for the month I'm satisfied. When I do my review it will score in the 80's.
Wow!
"Only 3X" seems to have really upgraded their servers! Download speeds went from averaging 70 kbs to 600kbs overnight. Absolutely amazing. My original comment was out of aggravated frustration with downloading, and the navigation takes a bit of getting used to. The site just isn't my cup of tea I guess. Be advised: Amazing HQ video and lightening fast downloads. Thank-you webmaster.
How about a whole pile of headaches instead. The navigation made me claustrophobic, and download speed is abysmal, averaging 75kbs. After waiting 2.5 hrs. for a 400MB download, I found out that I only had one of two clips. To FIND the other clip you're pretty much on your own. Some movie links take you to destinations that don't even offer a movie download option!! Other movie links take you to another site's membership application page. When I navigated back to Only 3x, I had to log in again. This outfit is something like a farm team for DDF and 21st Sextury, unfortunately not everyone makes the cut. Second string, B grade talent including the camera work. The male performers look like they may just be picking up some quick easy cash for pizza, weed and Playstation games. Amazing picture quality, too bad everything else is so poor. SAVE YOUR MONEY.
I have posted about how much I like the General Entertainment sites, Eve Angel, Mya Diamond and Lora Craft. With the one main problem with any of the three being that each one will go down 1-2 days per month on average. I had wondered if it was maybe a server problem they have or something technical of that sort. I recently noticed that only3x.com site is listed in Mya, Eve and Lora's site as a partner site, but it isn't under the General Entertainment name. Also Club Maria Belucci is in with only3x and listed as a partner to those 3. Maybe this is the beginning of a family of sites like 21st Sextury?
