I'm glad it's not just me who found the videos boring, they really need to do something different to liven up those vids. I'm not that much into videos but I can still appreciate a well produced solo video with a sexy seductive striptease especially if a model can grab my attention with some dirty talking but sadly it's rare to come across a site who's solo vids do anything for me.

| Pros: |
Choice of billing by CCBill or Epoch
Reduced price $20 cross sale to Only Tease offered through CCBill which I was happy to take advantage of. (Not pre-checked)
A stunning collection of well known top tier models
A paradise for stocking lovers.
A new photo set or video added 7 days a week. (Every 3rd or 4th update is a video)
Photos in 3 sizes, Standard (711 x 1066), Extra Large (1365 x 2048) and Ultra Large (2000 x 3000)
Zips available in each of the sizes
Videos downloadable in 1280 x 720 wmv, 640 x 360 wmv and an ipod version. Streaming also available in HD and standard resolutions
The above stated resolutions apply since the site started so there is no drop off in quality as you go back through the archives.
Easy navigation with customizable browse options and an excellent search facility.
All file sizes and run times listed
User comments and ratings for model and lingerie |
| Cons: |
Regional pricing
No model info or bio, a name is all you get, not even an age or country which is the bare minimum I like to know.
Some may find the site too softcore
Awful file naming, just seems like random numbers and letters.
Too much air brushing of photos but hopefully this will change in the future as webmaster appears responsive to customer’s wishes.
I’m afraid this photo lover found the videos here mind numbingly boring.
Few fully clothed sets. I appreciate the theme is lingerie but it would be nice to see more fully clothed sets before they strip down to the lingerie.
“Lingerie” doesn’t always mean bras and panties here. Too many sets start with the model already topless or bottomless or both, wearing only stockings and suspenders |
| Bottom Line: |
Art-Lingerie provides an impressive collection of 122 models in a collection of softcore mostly solo photos and videos with the main theme being lingerie with a particular emphasis on stockings. In fact I would go as far as to say every single update involves the model wearing stockings. The site is very softcore and features nudity but doesn’t go as far as spreading or masturbation. When I say “nudity” what I mean is that the models show boobs and pussy but they are never totally naked because the stockings never come off.. The site has been online since May 2009 and with daily updates has already grown in to a decent sized collection with 732 photo sets (58,000+ pics) and 256 videos to date.
Although as I mentioned in the cons they provide zero information about the models I think most regular subscribers to softcore glamour sites will instantly recognise many of the models here. I found many of my favourites here from the US (Celeste Star, Carli Banks, Faye Reagan, Georgia Jones, Shay Laren) and Europe (Ariel, Cikita, Eufrat, Jenni P) as well as some of the popular British models from Only Tease such as Bryoni-Kate, Carla and Hayley-Marie.
The navigation makes it really easy to get around the site and download the content. Browsing via the model index will display all of a model’s photo shoots and videos on one page and what I like is that all the download links for zips and videos are right there on the page, all you have to do is scroll down and click, click, click to grab all the zips, no need to mess around opening every single gallery. If only every site made downloading content this simple. If you are more selective about what you download you also have an excellent search engine allowing you to search not only by model’s hair colour or breast size but even down to the style and colour of the stockings she is wearing.
With regards to the photos I won’t go on about the photo-shopping too much here as plenty has already been said on that subject in previous reviews and comments on this site. Although my preference is for natural looking photos I’m probably more tolerant of the airbrushed look than messmer and didn’t really let it spoil my enjoyment of the models and lingerie too much. In fact I quite liked some of the sets where it looked like they filtered out some of the colour to give them an almost retro look. My main complaints would be too few fully clothed sets and possibly too many that start wearing nothing but stockings. As the theme is lingerie I also think it might be nice to see some photo sets where the model starts naked and then dresses up in her lingerie and stockings which is something I enjoyed seeing at Petites Parisiennes.
The HD videos here are excellent quality and even the lower res 640 x 360 ones I checked out had an average bit rate of 6-8000 kbps so looked fairly decent even when on full screen. Unfortunately as my preference is for photos I found it difficult to appreciate the videos here and the ones I have watched so far nearly sent me to sleep. The videos I’ve watched pretty much all take the same format, you have a model dressed in lingerie, sometimes only stockings and suspenders, the model doesn’t speak, there’s no background music, the only noises you here are the sounds of the sofa or bed creaking as the model moves around on it or the sound of her heels on the wooden floor as she’s walking around. It almost seems like an awkward silence in my opinion. I know a lot of people don’t like background music in their videos but for me if the model is not going talk or interact in any way then some music would help create a better atmosphere. And of course there’s no sexual action to get excited about either. The model will just sit or lay there caressing her hands up and down her stockings and over her breasts, she might remove her shoes, then perhaps her bra or panties if she’s wearing any to start with, you might get the odd close up shot of a pussy and her hand glancing lightly over the top but nothing even close to a masturbation scene. Videos usually range from 5 to 10 minutes in length.
Overall I enjoyed the site and would recommend it for fans of softcore glamour and stocking lovers as long as you can tolerate the photo-shopping. |

I've been through every single picture set and I'm pretty certain you won't find one single picture of a totally naked girl on the entire site because they never remove the stockings...unless i blinked and missed one.

Well i'm a current member and also one of those 58% who voted in the poll. Really don't know why they feel the need to use so much airbrushing when all the models are already stunningly beautiful.They totally trashed my favorite freckled redhead Faye Regan with the airbrushing to the extent you wouldn't even know she had freckles if you'd not seen her before.

Thanks for the reply and for taking the time to check it out. I guess I'll just have to grin and bear the regional pricing if I want to join this one. I'm quite tempted to join Art-Lingerie and take Only Tease as a cross sell because it works out approx $10 a month cheaper that way for Only Tease compared to joining it directly and it's clearly a huge site that i've never joined before so would probably want to stick around for 3 or 4 months.

Well my IP location is showing up as where I actually live in the UK so it does seem very odd the site offers 2 people living in the same country different prices in different currencies. I don't really understand what Open DNS or Norton DNS is so I doubt I would be using any of that, I just use the default service provided by my ISP O2. I have tried copy and pasting the sign up URL for the Only Tease sites into one of those free US based proxies and successfully got the $24.95 join price but i'm a bit wary about entering my credit card details into one of those free proxies as not really sure how secure they are.

Hey Claypaws, how did you manage to get the price $24.95 (USD) from the UK? With CCBill I'm getting £17.34 (GBP) recurring at £16.75 (GBP) which is over $27 (USD) for the first month....are you using a proxy or something? It seems crazy as a Brit that I have to pay more than Americans for the priviledge of paying a British website in British Pounds, the same with their other site Only Tease except there the $24.95 is closer to $30, regional pricing gone crazy and the main reason none of their sites have ever had a membership out of me yet.

I saw the age verification thing when visiting from your link there but not when visiting from the PU link. When clicking on the age verification thing it just takes you to a sign up page for the site where you have the option to sign up to the 2 day $1 trial recurring at $39.95 or taking a standard membership for $29.95 not to mention the sneaky pre-checked cross sales in small print at the bottom.
The age verification thing looks like nothing more than a sneaky underhand attempt at selling a subscription. The thing that most surprised me about your comment was seeing the words "Bangbros" and "reputable" in the same sentence.

I've come across that situation before although it is rare. When i joined Just Nude back about 18 months ago CCBill also didn't accept visa for that site and it's still the case so i had to pay by mastercard.

I couldn't see myself paying $50 for the whole network, the sites are just too big with too much content and I simply wouldn't have the time to justify paying that price. They're always sending me emails offering 2 of their sites for $30/month but I would be much more likely to join if they just offered me one site at a time for $15.

Thanks for your review and for highlighting the technical problems. On my last membership at another of their sites ATK Galleria my overriding impression of the site was that they seem to suffer from more technical problems than any other site I've ever joined. It also seems that when they have problems it affects all their sites as I remember another user describing the same problems at ATK Hairy site around the same time.
I would really like to join ATK Exotics again but I'm reluctant to spend the money on a site that's just going to piss me off with technical problems.

| Pros: |
TBP/PU discounted price of $19.95
Sign up through CC Bill, no pre-checked cross sells, no regional pricing and easy cancellation.
Huge collection dating back to 2006; over 12,000 videos, 28,000 photo sets (3.5 million images) and over 2800 models shot by 96 different photographers.
Since 2011 photo sets available to view and download in zips in 3 different sizes, High Res 2000x3000, Medium Res 1064x1600 and Standard Res 682x1024.
Most recent videos come with 3 streaming and download options, HD 1920x1080p 6000k, SD 852 x480 2000k and Mobile 852x480 700k, all are MP4 files.
Usually 7 new photo sets added on 5 days a week and 7 new videos on the other 2 days so typically you get 35 new photo sets and 14 new videos per week.
Good download speeds (90% of the time), typically I was getting 4 MB/s.
No problems using D/L manager, I used Down Them All in Firefox.
You can rate the models and add comments. |
| Cons: |
Photo and video resolutions reduce as you go back in time to 2010 and before.
The site seems to suffer from more technical problems than your average pay site.
Content can become a bit repetitive for the simple fact that there's just so much of it.
If you're not into solo content you will probably be losing interest in Galleria as it's been a year since they last added any lesbian scenes and I can only find 3 B/G scenes added in the last year.
Hardly any diversity amongst the models, they are nearly all white, aged 18-25, slim and either shaved or trimmed.
Old content has been removed from the site.
My pet hate, file naming of zips. Any model with photo sets dated before 2011 her photo zip downloads will all have the same file name so renaming required. Thankfully the file naming structure improved after 2011 with the introduction of the 3 different size options. |
| Bottom Line: |
My last visit to ATK Galleria was way back in late 2006 and it was a site I kind of had mixed feelings about back then; whilst they had had a wonderful collection of models and photo sets they seemed to be lagging behind most other sites back then with photo resolutions maxing at 1024 px long end which was small even for 2006 and you could invariably find some of the same photo sets in larger resolution on sites like Teen Dreams and Babelicious back then. Although Galleria has been online since the late 1990s I see that 95% of all the photo sets I downloaded back in 2006 are no longer on the site, removed I presume to resurface on their ATK Archives site. They must be the only site that expect you to pay out for an extra subscription to view their older lower resolution content.
I'm not convinced that the site layout today is much different to what I remember back in 2006, it looks a little dated by today's standards although I have to admit I'm not a big fan of some of these flashy modern site designs with their infinite scrolling. I like to browse a site by the model index and this worked well for me here, just select model directory at the top of the page and select the letter of the alphabet from the drop down menu. When I clicked on a model I really liked how the photo sets, movies and bio were displayed in separate tabs making it easy for me to go straight to the photo sets. You can also browse by latest updates from newest to oldest, there are over a thousand pages though and you can only jump ahead or back 5 pages at a time from the first or last page. You can also browse just photos or movies. The photo sets are grouped in to softcore and hardcore galleries according to their themes some of which include Coeds, Uniforms, Lingerie, Amateurs, Upskirts & Panties in the softcore section and themes such as Masturbation, Toys, Foot Fetish, Watersports, Blowjob, Lesbian and Action in the hardcore section. There's also an advanced search and a tag search but this is by no means comprehensive as they only started adding tags in the last few years.
The models are mostly 18 to mid 20s and typically have the cute girl next door look, I suspect many of them are amateurs or first timers here. It's a great site for discovering new models you've likely not seen anywhere else before and they are regularly adding new models every week. When a new model is added you will often get anything up to 10 photo sets of her added within a couple of weeks. Most of the new updates these days are coming from 3 main content producers, BMB, GBP & JSP and as a result the photo sets can become rather repetitive because you get shoot after shoot in the same rooms with the same backgrounds in what I presume are the homes of the photographers. There's very few outdoor sets added these days. If you want to see gorgeous girls photographed against a backdrop of stunning coastal scenery, mountains or walking through pine forests better to join Met Art or Femjoy.
Most of the video updates these days fall in to the Masturbation or Toys category. Sometimes when a new model is added you can see her do an interview video. Most videos run about 10 to 20 minutes. None of the videos I've watched so far have any annoying background music thankfully and I have to admit I've not watched that many. I'm not a great fan of solo masturbation videos and there's a limit to how many I can watch before boredom sets in.
Overall I would say this is probably one of my favourite sites now that the photo resolution has reached a fairly respectable size and I particularly love their uniform and upskirt themed content. The only thing that spoiled the enjoyment a bit were the persistent technical problems that the site seems to suffer from. At one point during my second month of membership I was on the verge of quitting the site due to the constant 400 errors I was getting and the constant need to refresh download links and pages. That problem went on for over 2 weeks before it finally got fixed. There is so much to see that you could probably not do the site justice in 1 month. After 3 months and a terabyte of downloads I'm just about done, it will probably take me another year to view it all now. |

You'll have to excuse me if I'm appearing a bit thick here but what is the point you're making in this comment? Are you implying that ATK Galleria doesn't deserve to be a high ranked site? Are you questioning the sincerity of the recent reviews that make it the top ranked site? Just because you may not rate the site highly doesn't mean others are not entitled to do so.

I'm guessing these technical problems are affecting all the ATK sites. I'm currently subscribed to ATK Galleria and have also experienced a lot of technical problems. In a way I'm kind of relieved to see your comment to know that I'm not the only one suffering these problems. I've been meaning to write a similar comment myself about the problems but just haven't gotten around to it yet. I'll write up another comment later when I have 5 minutes, I've been holding off hoping they will get it fixed but nothing seems to get done.

The Bishop's Review
Ditto what Capn said...a nice first review and welcome to PU. I've been a member at the other ATK sites Exotics, Galleria and Premium but always been a bit hesitant as to whether the hairy niche will appeal to me. If you like the "hairy" niche the We Are Hairy site is highly thought of by other reviewers here.
