REVIEW = 60 by RagingBuddhist (47)

Pros:
+ Unique Content
+ Reasonable download speeds @ >500 kb/s (see bottom line)
+ Newest files in high resolution (see cons)
+ Choice of four resolutions for newest video - FHD @ 1920x1080, HQ & HR @ 720x576 and LQ @ 352x288
+ No upsells splashed all over the site
+ Trial at $16.95 for ten days, renewing at $9.95 a month until cancelled. Regular $29.95 sub also renews at $9.95
+ Easy join and cancel through CCBill

Cons:
- Somewhat haphazard navigation
- Erratic and slow in coming updates
- Picture quality roughly that of a dated point and shoot camera
- One format - mp4 - except for a few oldest files in divx avi format
- Search function lacks categories - search by keyword without a list to choose from
- Motion blur in Full HD video

Bottom Line:
Always on the prowl for new amateur content, this seemed like a novel concept, so I took the plunge. I'll have to say that I was entertained for a bit but not completely happy I joined. It's rare when I don't stay on a site almost constantly after I join to download all I can. I did save most of the higher resolution video but didn't bother with the older stuff and the pictures. As of the date of my trial subscription there were 10 Full HD, 32 HiDef, 11 High Res videos, the rest being 1990 looking files. By the time I got down to the low resolution videos, I stopped downloading. There are also 92 Picture sets running from ~60 to ~100 pics. Zip files for SOME picture sets are available, but removed after a year. As I said in my earlier comment, I just don't understand a site, especially a smaller one, removing their better material, or worse yet, completely removing something they've put up.
*******************
The Member home page brings you to links for eight sections, all of which are pictures, except videos, of course (Item count in parentheses): Games(92), Videos(174*), Auditions(51), Girls(28), Ranking(16), Clothed and Naked(10), Best Pics Gallery(48) and Zip Files(14) *Counting different resolutions of the same file.

> "Games" - Links to all pic sets

> "Videos" - With only nine videos per page and ony one file format, I see no need for a click to get to the download link. For picture sets of a game, there are only six thumbnails, thankfully large, but centered on the page with wide wasted borders on both sides. Navigation would be greatly simplified by using the open area to decrease the number of page clicks needed to view an entire gallery.

> "Auditions" - Links to 51 picture sets

> "Girls" - Expecting links to her photos and videos, and got a thumbnail pic of her face. A wasted page, in my opinion, considering the home page has a list of the players with all of her links.

> "Ranking" - 16 models thumbnails, linking to five SMALL (500px) pictures of her face, breasts, pussy, legs and bottom.

> "Clothed and Naked" - Ten thumbnails that link to ten pics - on two pages?

> "Best Pics" - 48 pics (1280px) on 6 pages

> "Zip Files" - Links to 15 zip files from recent updates, removed after one year
*******************
Download speeds are adequate considering the amount of content and size of the files. There's not much here that doesn't take but a minute or two to download.

I noticed some motion blur in the Full HD movies. The GSpot codec appliance seems to indicate that files have been upscaled from 1440x1080 to 1920x1080, resulting in the blurring.

With no ability to arrange updates in order of date, there's no way to get a fix on what resolution picture you're going to get. Most pics I saw were 1280 pixels on the long side.
*******************
The bottom line for me is that this site needs a lot of work to bring it up to speed. There haven't been any updates in the week I've been on the site, the pictures are small by today's standards and the video quality is average. All that, with the navigation sitting on the haphazard side and the removing of content, I wouldn't re-join until I saw news of major changes here.

REVIEW = 60 by mbaya (344)

Pros:
-Bill through CCBill.
-Creative, possibly unique focus within the niche of nude softcore.
-Most girls quite attractive, about 70%. The other 30% don't belong on any site, nude or nonude.
-Inexpensive join price and rebills. However, see below.
-No DRM or download limits, but that is hardly an issue on such a small site.

Cons:
-The site has 20 videos and three of them are under a minute.
-There are far more photo sets at 316.
-The quality at its best is only average. The best quality is MP4, 720x576. The other option is 352x288. Some older videos are AVI, but still low quality. No choice of other video formats and no streaming.
-Photos are low quality. An older one was 720x960 and a recent one was 480x640.
-Better quality videos previous to this months available for an extra fee.
-Although the girls speak British English, they are often incomprehensible. Their witty banter is wasted.

Bottom Line:
Several years ago I bought the package that they offered of downloadable videos. They were not bad considering how softcore the site is. There is a degree of creativity and tease in that the girls strip while playing games such as spin the bottle, strip darts, high card, rock, paper, scissors etc. I liked the videos for what they were, but I would prefer more explicit. This is teasing fun, not exactly inthecrack.com.

I saw listed in the site news that they have again started adding videos, after a very long break. What I wasn't expecting was just how expensive a site can be.

The monthly join and rebill prices are just fine. They post high resolution videos, 720x576 only during the month they are added. After that, you can buy them separately. If you bought all the high resolution videos, you would pay $182 for 16 videos, a total of 143 minutes.

When I joined there were 6 recent update videos at the best quality. The older ones were 352x288. What I saw was in no way worth buying individually just so I could get better quality.

Obviously buying videos individually is not a reasonable option. But, at the rebill of $11.99 a month you can get 4 new videos each month. Wow, $3 each for softcore videos that average 9 minutes each. Are they kidding?

I cannot justify the pricing on the site or the reasoning behind making better quality videos more expensive. However, the part I really can't get is making photo sets zipdownloadable for one month and then removing that feature. After they do that, you can't get the zipdownload even if you want to pay for it. Huh?

In the member forum the webmaster responded to complaints about these policies by saying that they have many more members staying longer periods of time and that in the past members who did no re-signup were not paying their fair share. I cannot agree with this business model.

Although the videos and pictures are interesting as a tease site, I cannot recommend joining.

REVIEW = 65 by asmith12 (124)

Pros:
- original concept; pretends to be "real reality" (with no script) but frankly I'm not 100% convinced
- variety of games
- quality is ok
- cameraguy work is quite good

Cons:
- I'm not 100% convinced that it is not scripted;
- undressing only
- photos only
- site design is pretty poor

Bottom Line:
These guys seem to promote the idea of softcore specifically distancing themselves from hardcore; they're part of a bigger initiative to promote softcore (but "NO PORN") described on KeepItNice.com.

Overall, the site produces very mixed feelings; while the concept is very good, you need to be a really big fan of girls undressing and playing games while half-dressed or in nude to overcome 'undressing only' and 'stills only' issues. On the other hand, if they would add videos, personally I could try to join them back.
