| Pros: |
-Official website of Valentina Vaughn, Penthouse Pet on June 2005.
-Beautiful exotic looking professional model.
-No tattoos but a small belly-button piercing.
-75 picture galleries, average 40 pictures each.
-Half of the galleries seem exclusive.
-Galleries are artistic nude or softcore with occasional spreading and mild fingering.
-Some non-nude sets.
-22 videos. Mainly solo artistic nude / softcore or taken during a photo shoot.
-Access to Camz (Private Camz) webcam feeds.
-Model can be contacted via website form.
-Monthly updated diary.
-Free tour lists latest updates. |
| Cons: |
-No zip files.
-Image galleries are flash based. Despite this, some allow 1 by 1 image saving.
-Galleries often resize or rotate images a few degrees, which produces pixellation.
-Image original size is small: 85% are 800x550 or less.
-No option for saving videos: they play in browser.
-Videos are quite low resolution: 90% are 320x240 800kbps 4 minutes long.
-Videos are in one format only. Most are quicktime, with a few wmv.
-Probably very few exclusive videos. Most have Marquis Models watermarks.
-Most videos are a couple years old, with watermarks dating back to 2005-2006.
-Music is the only audio during all the videos.
-No webcam shows by Valentina Vaughn ever.
-Exclusive content seems to be shot mainly in hotel rooms. |
| Bottom Line: |
The model has the looks, knows how to pose and the photos are taken by top photographers. Watching low-resolution versions of good pictures on a cumbersome flash interface makes the experience less than enjoyable. It might be acceptable in a free portfolio site but not when you have typed your credit card info. Flash based galleries nowadays in an adult pay site are hard to justify. I used to think they were an annoying trend that common sense had forced to disappear.
During the last few months, updates consisted mainly of girlfriend sets. Some of them had Valentina Vaughn plus another model but most were solo sets by other models. I believe half of the galleries could be exclusive but, according to watermarks, the other half should be also available at Digital Desire, Misha Online, Marquis Models, Ken Marcus, Penthouse or Juliland (taken by Richard Avery). Non-exclusive videos have watermarks of Marquis Models (almost half), Juliland, Digital Desire, Foot Factory, 24 Main Street. I'd say there are perhaps 3-4 exclusive videos only which are mainly artistic posing.
According to the update log, the site was relaunched in December 2007 but it still has in construction links 9 months later. There's no information on what's the empty "wish list" for or a schedule of cam shows. What's more, every page has a huge banner ad that takes you to abibids.com auction site to see the "new sexy items I'm auctioning off today" but the model seems to have had no listing there in the last 6 months; there's also a non-active niteflirt button (pay-per-minute phone chats) although Valentina Vaughn doesn't appear listed there either. The diary was quite cryptic too; it looked like it was written for life-long friends and not for fans wanting to know what the model was up to.
Go for the trial membership if you like the model and want to sample her work for other sites and some exclusive artistic pictorials. Unless the site gets a serious workout and updates start coming more often, staying for a month like I did is not worth it. |

*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.
