Pros:
Discounted price through PU/TBP
Choice of billing methods is Paypal (Epoch) or Rocketpay
Large collection going back many years including the classic magazine shoots from the 70s 80s & 90s.
Something to suit all tastes from solo glamour photo shoots to B/G hardcore videos, lesbians, threesomes and more.
Photo galleries downloadable in zips in two different sizes 1024px & 1600px.
Most videos come with 4 download options; 1920 x 1080 (8000k), 1280 x 720 (4000k), 992 x 558 (2000k) & 640 x 360 (1000k). Can also stream at 720p and 480p.
Site updates 7 days a week with usually 3 or 4 galleries/videos.
Good D/L speeds around 80% of my max.
No problem using my D/L manager (Firefox DTA).
Excellent navigational features; search and sort the content, tags and categories.
Add comments, like and add to favourites.
Cons:
Pre-checked cross sell on sign-up.
Visa cards not accepted if joining through Paypal.
Minimal 4k video, only one or two a month have the 4k option which is basically the new Penthouse Pet of the month solo shoots.
For a name like Penthouse famous for it's glamour shoots a maximum photo resolution of 1066 x 1600px is disappointing by today's standards.
Poor file naming of zips and videos, just meaningless numbers.
A minor annoyance having to scroll right down to the bottom of every photo gallery page to get the zip download links.
Some of the oldest pre 2005 photo shoots that have not been remastered are low resolution typically 432 x 648px.
Bottom Line:
Penthouse is probably one of the most famous names in the adult industry and those of us of a certain age can probably remember getting our hands on a copy of their magazines as a curious teenager way back before the internet or even VHS videos were invented. I'm not quite sure what the story is with this website but I get the impression the original Penthouse site closed down, the content library got sold and was then re-branded as Penthouse Gold. The Best Porn list this site as being launched in 2019 but the library of content here certainly goes back many years including the classic magazine shoots from the 70s, 80s & 90s. Site stats as of today are 4007 videos, 8528 photo galleries and 2836 models (including the male models).
The majority of models are US based so that makes for a more diverse selection of models than your typical Eastern European website. You have everything from fresh faced teens to busty milfs and everything in-between with a nice selection of Ebony, Asian and Latina models thrown into the mix. I found nice photo collections of many of my favourite models I've collected since the early to mid 2000s such as Carli Banks, Faye Reagan, Georgia Jones, Hanna Hilton, Jana Jordan and Shay Laren as well as some of my more up to date favourites like Alex Grey, Emily Willis, Gabbie Carter & Naomi Swann.
The site updates 7 days a week with usually 1 video and 2 or 3 galleries. Typically that's a hardcore B/G or lesbian scene and the 3 galleries usually consist of a solo glamour shoot, a hardcore or lesbian photo shoot and another vault set which is a classic set remastered. Occasionally you can get 5 or 6 updates in a day when the “ Pet of the Month” is added. Unfortunately many of the updates are not actually newly produced content. Majority of the scenes added in the last week are from DVDs released in 2008 and 2009 however it does appear to be all exclusively shot by Penthouse Studios.
It's easy to find your way around the site with the excellent navigational features. You have “Penthouse Pets” which shows you all the Pets of the Month with a drop down menu allowing you to search any year from 2020 back to 1972. The videos heading has sub sections for “Latest videos, Behind the Scenes, PH Confidential and 3D”. You can also search the content from drop down menus of various categories from the type of action (B/G, G/G, BGG etc.) to model appearance (Busty, Blonde, Redhead, Asian, Ebony etc.), You also have a nice model index which you can sort by most recent, most popular and an A-Z listing. Other categories include Erotica and Magazines where you can browse and read erotic stories, letters and articles as well as the photos from the Penthouse magazines right back to the 1970s. There's also a link to discounts to other sites, live cams and a store selling adult products and sex toys.
Being a photo collector my main interest in the site were the solo glamour photo shoots. These are professional glossy magazine style shoots here with typically between 30 to 60 photos per set, beautiful girls in nice settings wearing sexy lingerie before getting naked. Most disappointing aspect of the photos was having a maximum resolution of only 1600px. The content seems to have been downgraded in this site because the original Penthouse site used to issue photo sets in 4000px resolution but unfortunately I never got around to joining that.
Being a big name studio the videos obviously have a professional feel to them with nice settings, excellent camera work, lighting and sound. The solo Penthouse Pet videos are generally quite short at 4-5 minutes but the action scenes I've watched can be anything from 15 to 45 minutes. There are also a number of full length movies around 1hr 30 to 2 hrs long although those are mostly streaming only. The videos I watched just seemed like run of the mill porn videos, I didn't see anything too extreme, in fact I would say much of it is bordering on glamcore. I did find some of the lesbian videos particularly hot though especially the 3 way lesbian scene starring Nekane, Rebecca Volpetti and Stella Cox dressed as schoolgirls.
Overall a decent site with lots of exclusive material to see and something to suit most tastes. Even better if you can find yourself a holiday $15 discount deal as I did.
I was checking out The Best Porn today and noticed this site highlighted in the "What's Hot" section so checked it out and discovered they already have a Black Friday Sale on at $14.99 per month which is cheaper than the already discounted PU/TBP price. If you click the link to visit from PU/TBP you still get offered the Black Friday price so I went ahead and signed up.
I was a little hesitant to sign up at first because I noticed an error report on TBP from somebody dated May this year stating that zip files are no longer available which thankfully turned out not to be true. TBP should delete misinformation such as this because it nearly lost you a referral sale. I was surprised not to find any user reviews for Penthouse here at PU given that it's been around forever but I get the impression the site has changed owners recently and that Penthouse Gold is a rebranding of the old Penthouse site.
Only problem signing up with Paypal through Epoch was that I discovered they don't accept Visa so had to load some cash onto my Prepaid Mastercard. Watch out for the pre-checked cross sell though, I'm not used to seeing them on Paypal and nearly missed it. Anyway I'll be back with a full review probably next month when I've spent some time there.
That's good to hear, CCBill are usually pretty good in that respect. I hadn't realised Pretty Parisiennes was still an active site, in fact I thought it had closed down at one point. I've not been a member there since 2011. It would be great to see an up to date review if the site comes back online.
I see the site is still down a week later, disgusting really if you have a paid for membership. You should ask the billing company for a refund if you haven't already done so.
Great review skippy, I had those same navigation issues when I was last there nearly 2 years ago. I find it incredible that some webmasters can't seem to grab the simple concept that when we hit the back button we want to go back to the page we came from.
Thanks for the reply jamy. I just use plain old Internet Explorer on a PC, upgraded to IE9 a few weeks ago and only ever venture into Firefox if a site forces me to try and grab photos with Down Them All due to a lack of zip files.

Pros:
Currently available for the reduced price of $14.95
Billing by CCBill
Exclusive content
Updated daily 7 days a week usually a photo set one day followed by a video the next.
515 photo shoots and 300 videos to date.
Photos can be browsed in a choice of 3 different resolutions, 667x1000px, 1334x2000px or 2667x4000px
Zip downloads available in each size
Choice of 3 size options for the videos, 640x360, 1280x720 and a full hd 1920x1080.
Videos can also be streamed online.
Useful browse and sort options
Cons:
Regional pricing increased the price to around $17 for me from the UK.
Some minor navigational irritations
A few site errors e.g. missing zips or links that go to the wrong place
Videos are only available in Quicktime mov. format
When trying to stream the videos I had a 2-3 minute delay before it would start playing
Some photo sets and videos look like they are just a continuation of the previous one rather than a separate shoot.
File sizes not displayed for videos and zips
Site would have little interest to those looking for hardcore content
Bottom Line:
Petite Parisiennes is a collection of 59 stunning models, mostly French with a few Eastern Europeans and Black/Asian thrown into the mix. The majority of the models are in the 18 to mid 20s age range with natural body types.
The theme here is a day in the life of a sexy French girl and I do think they carry it off quite well. The photo sets generally start off with a wake up scene where the girl is in bed and waking up to start the day, that might often be followed with a shower or bath set before watching her try on various sets of lingerie or getting fully dressed before heading off out into Paris for some fun outdoor shoots. Although a lot of the outdoor shoots dont contain much nudity I thought it was fun to follow the models on the Metro, or in a restaurant and around some of the famous tourist sites in Paris like the Eiffel Tower, Louvre or even the Disneyland Park just flashing their panties or slipping out their boobs and sometimes pulling their panties aside for a sneaky peek at their pussy. Whilst I loved those outdoor shoots the minor downside for me was that I did find some of the plain nude indoor shoots a little dull at times.
As with most softcore sites I found the videos quite boring but maybe thats just me. Youll often have an interview with the model, in French with subtitles, many videos are just recordings of the photo shoot (yawn) as well as some with the model just dancing around and stripping to music and a few masturbation, sex toy and 2 girl videos. Their search category of erotic girl/girl or sex toy produces just 33 results out of 300 videos so as you can see the more explicit content is in the minority here.
They also provide you with plenty of search and browse tools to help you find anything specific that you might be looking for although I did come across some minor navigational irritations here. If you are just browsing the site in default mode anytime you click on a model or photo set and then hit the back button to go back to the previous page you are always taken back to the top of the page so you have to scroll back down to where you were again. If you use any of the search or sort options and want to return to your page of search results after clicking on a model or photo set you always get webpage has expired so need to refresh and resend the search option every time.
Overall I enjoyed the site and thought it was good value for money at the current reduced price. If Id paid $30 maybe I would have felt a little less enthusiastic about it. The outdoor sets were definitely my favourites so maybe Im developing a new fetish for public flashing thanks to these sexy French girls.
Yes I checked the site out again today and noticed that the billing company was Billing France, I don't know why but i always feel a bit uneasy about signing up to a site when i'm faced with an unfamiliar billing processor...i guess its a fear of the day when i have to call up my credit card company and say "hello, i joined porn site and they've ripped off my credit card" LOL
Was a member approx. 1 month prior to this review.
Pros:
An absolute bargain at $7.87 for a month or $29.87 for the whole year.
Billing by CC Bill with no pre-checked cross sells.
A huge archive of exclusive content.
Subscription includes several solo model sites such as Next Door Nikki and Dawn Avril which used to require separate subscriptions of $30 plus each.
Some 720p hd video and large resolution photos 3000px plus (minimal amount)
Zip downloads for about two thirds of the available photo content.
Site appears Download manager friendly, I used Down Them All without any problems.
Cons:
Automatically generated username and password
Annoying captcha to log in.
An archive site so don't expect any updates apart from maybe the occasional remastered video.
Much of the content is at least 10 years old so fairly low resolution by today's standards.
Some of the models are non-nude.
Most videos only have the one download option.
A few of the old solo model sites have not yet been added to the new site design and require a separate log in.
And finally the thing that has become my biggest pet peeve lately with porn sites, the file naming. Every single zip download has the file name images so need to rename everything yourself. The videos do have unique file names though mostly just numbers (e.g. 409a-720p).
Bottom Line:
This is one of those sites that has been on my radar to join for what seems like forever but I could never quite bring myself to join due to the lack of zips for the photos and the high price of joining the separate individual solo model sites so when I was checking out my old bookmarks the other week and noticed all the old Phil Flash sites had been brought together in a modern new site design and all for the new low price of $7.87 I jumped straight in. Some of the classic solo model sites included in a membership here include: Anna's Assets, Brandy's Box, Bratty Brittany, Dawn Avril, Dawn Avril Exposed, Kendall Blaze, Megan QT, Megan Summers, Next Door Nikki, Princess Blueyez, Seanna Teen, Taylor Twins, Tiffany Teen, and Teen Kasia along with the multi model site Face Down Ass Up University.
As the content is spread over several sites it's difficult to gauge the exact number of photo sets and videos available but it's a lot. Dawn Avril and Megan QT have over 400 photo sets each, Next Door Nikki has almost 300 and a few of the others have more than 200 sets. Unfortunately around 6 or 7 of the old solo sites have not yet been incorporated in to the new site design so you have to log in to the old original sites which means no zip files for the photos. Luckily thanks to sensible consecutive numbering of the picture files it was fairly simple to batch download them with Down Them All.
The content is all fairly softcore solo teasing and stripping featuring amateur 18 to early 20s models, Some models like Next Door Nikki and Princess Blueyez are non nude, some go topless only and some like my favourite Teen Kasia go fully nude with some toy play. Some of the non nude content here can be pretty hot often with only the skimpiest of underwear and the tiniest thongs covering the model's modesty leaving little to the imagination.
Due to much of the content here being 10 years or more old the resolutions are not really up to today's standards. The most common photo size across the sites tends to be around 800 x 1200px although there are a few exceptions to the rule. The majority of Teen Kasia's 80 plus zipped photo sets surprisingly came in at 2592 x 3872px. The video quality also varies greatly, I found some nice quality 1280 x 720p @ 8000k videos on the Seanna Teen website and then on the Dawn Avril site found many of her earlier videos a tiny 320 x 240p @ 700k that on full screen looked very grainy and almost unwatchable. The most common video size across the network of sites is probably around 640 x 480p,
It's difficult to know what to score this site, as a photo collector I got a lot classic content for a low value for money price but on the other hand anyone who prefers videos would probably find the resolution of most of it poor to mediocre if you've been used to watching hi-def. Ten years ago I would probably have scored this site a 90 but today high 70s is probably more realistic given the age of the content.
I've noticed this week the price of this site has been reduced to a bargain $7.87 per month or only $29.87 for a whole year so I couldn't resist signing up at that price. This is one of those sites that I've always quite fancied joining for years but never quite gotten around to it having been put off before by the higher price and lack of zip files.
Access now includes all the classic Phil Flash sites such as Dawn Avril, Next Door Nikki, Tiffany Teen and Teen Kasia to name a few. The good news is that the site has undergone an upgrade with a new design that now includes zip downloads for the photos, the bad news is that not quite all of the content has been incorporated into the new site yet. For Next Door Nikki and a couple of other sites you still have to access the old sites which have no zips for the images so I've been teaching myself again how to grab the images from Nikki's site using Down Them All which I've not used in over 4 years.
Most of the content is years old and not up to the resolution you would expect today although they do appear to be remastering some of the old stuff. There's an absolute mountain of stuff to get through so I can see my self sticking around 2 or 3 months at this price.
Thanks for the feedback. The majority of photo sets do start with the model wearing something although a lot of the time it would just be something like a swimsuit or lingerie as opposed to being fully clothed.
Hi LadyLover, interesting you should ask that. I was going to include a bit more information about my downloading experience but my initial review was over the character limit so had to edit out a couple of paragraphs.
I did encounter some slow download speeds on the first day of my membership and got the feeling there might be some restrictions if you are downloading too many files at once. Normally in my DownThemAll download manager I have it set to run 4 concurrent downloads but with that setting at PhotoDromm I found the speed dropped to virtually dial-up speeds of less than 100 kb/s. I changed the setting to run 2 concurrent downloads and immediately my d/l speeds increased to averaging around 3 MB/s. I wouldn't like to say for sure there's some kind of throttling or restrictions imposed by the site in case it was just my internet connection having a slow moment but the 2 concurrent downloads worked well for me so I just kept it like that. I often had 60 or 70 zip files queued up in the manager and they all downloaded fine without any timeouts.
Regarding any downloaded limits in general I was downloading probably close to 10 GB per day without any problems although there was one occurrence about 5 or 6 days in where I had a heavy download session on the Friday night then again on the Saturday morning when I found myself locked out of the site. On checking my email later I found that they had automatically changed my password as a precaution, I presume due to an abnormally large amount of downloads within the space of 24 hours. Anyway I was able to log in again immediately with the new password but decided to wait 24 hours before downloading again in case I had passed some unwritten limit.
The newest 3000 px photo galleries contain high quality data rich images averaging around 4 MB per image so the average 40-50 picture zip files are often close to 200 MB so it's easy to rack up a lot of data in a relatively short period of time. I've downloaded every photo set in about 2 weeks and the total size of the folder is 135 GB so you shouldn't have any problem getting what you want in a 1 month subscription.
Thanks PinkPanther, appreciate the feedback. This site had been on my radar for years but I was always hesitant to join because there wasn't a lot of information about it anywhere, all we had here was Drooler's 10 year old review which wasn't very complimentary although I can see where he was coming from because the pre 2009 content still uses the old site layout but clearly the site is much improved these days.
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
Billing by CCBill, reliable with easy cancellation.
Exclusive content.
Large archive, site online since around 2004 I believe.
28 new updates per month (14 photo/14 video)
Stunning 2000 x 3000 px photos and 1280 x 720p videos @ 6000k.
Zip downloads for photos including a faster zips feature which makes for fast easy downloading of photo sets.
Site download manager friendly. (I use Down Them All with an old version of Firefox)
Reasonable download speeds, I'm averaging 3 MB/s with DTA.
Decent file naming with zips and videos including the name of the model and set title.
No ads in the member's area and no links or up-sells to dodgy cam sites.
Cons:
Regional pricing made this an expensive join, the price I paid in GBP was equal to around $35 (USD).
The content is very soft, while there is full nudity you rarely see models posing with their legs apart, there's no spreading, or close up pussy shots. It's basically what I would call a tits and bums site with only occasional glimpses of pussy.
The video section of the site seems disorganised.
Lack of choice regarding download options, only 1 size of photo zip and 1 choice of video resolution to download or stream.
No search engine.
Older content is lower resolution which is expected for a site that's been online this long.
A few of the oldest photo sets don't have zips, no more than around 5-10% of the total sets.
Hardly any information on the models, for most all you get is birth country, hair and eye colour.
A high percentage of models with large fake breasts.
Bottom Line:
Photo Dromm is a solo photographer site featuring the work of Filippo Sano, there's no background information provided about him so the only thing I can say about him with any degree of certainty is that he has an amazing talent for capturing stunning images of beautiful women in stunning locations. I would estimate something like 70 to 80% of the photo shoots are outdoors so you get to see these beautiful women in many different settings like spectacular coastlines, countryside settings, old ruins and derelict buildings.
There are 157 models on the site, predominantly Czech and Hungarian but also several British models along with a few from various other European countries. Many of the top tier Euro models from the last 10 plus years are featured here such as Ariel, Cikita, Klara (Zoe), Lenka Gaborova, Nikki Case & Zuzanna Drabinova to name a few.
When you log in to the members area you land on the updates page with the current month's updates at the top. You can scroll down the page to see all the updates from this year and at the bottom you will find links to the previous years archives 2017 back to 2009. Content older than 2009 can only be accessed through the individual model pages from within the model index page. There appears to be a newer website design layered over the top of an older design as when you access the galleries of models with some of the earliest content on the site when you click through to their galleries you are taken to an old site layout with tiny thumbnails. Most photo shoots are split into two updates of around 40 to 50 photos and videos usually in two or more parts of 3 to 4 minutes each. Earlier photo sets on the site were often split into 4 updates of 25 photos each. The way the site is organised makes it difficult to calculate the amount of content but since I've downloaded every photo set I can say with a fair degree of accuracy that there are 2350 photo updates with a total 89660 images. I would guess the number of videos is similar as they have been alternating photo and video updates since at least 2009.
The easiest way of downloading all the photo shoots of a model is from her page within the model index. On her page you will see all the covers displayed for her photo updates then in the top left section of her page there is a panel which you can click for faster zip files. Click on this and all the zip links are revealed in the panel for all her photo sets. If you are using a download manager like Down Them All this feature makes life really easy for downloading. If a model has 20 or 30 or more photo sets as many do then you just need to go down the list click, click, click and within 20 or 30 seconds you have all the links queued in your download manager which saves an awful lot of time over having to open each gallery page individually and scroll down to the bottom to find the download zip link. How I wish every site would make downloading photo sets this easy. The photos have been 3000 px since June 2015, before that they were still a fairly decent 2000px then as you go back through time they gradually drop down to 1600, 1280 then 1024 px for the very earliest ones.
The video section of the site I find a bit disorganised. On entering the video section there are 76 models listed on 1 page in what seems to be no particular order, they are not even listed alphabetically. There are models who have videos but who are not listed on the videos page. Some models have a link to their videos section from their page within the model index but some models with videos have no link to them. The only way you can find videos of some models is to scroll your way through the updates calenders until you find them. There's also no way to search or sort the content within the site. The videos themselves have no previews, descriptions or screencaps, all you get is one thumbnail which you can either left click to play or right click to download. They usually feature the model just standing around posing or walking around, there's nothing really sexual going on and quite frankly I find these kind of solo videos boring. All the ones I've watched contain background music. The recent ones are 3 to 4 minutes long, the older ones shorter. The HD 720p resolution seems to disappear around 2009 with the older videos being mpg files. I was unable to play those mpgs in my windows media player, I get sound but no picture. I don't really care enough about videos to mess around looking for another video player to play them.
In summary I'd give the site top marks for the fine collection of models, stunning photography and user friendly fast zips download feature. The shambolic organisation of the video collection doesn't really hurt my score as they don't particularly interest me.
I was almost tempted to sign up here today, they seem to have some top models photographed in stunning outdoor locations. Since Drooler's last review here is almost 5 years old I decided to check out TBP's review. Under minor negatives they write quote "I was unable to download any of the zip file. All gave me errors"
In my opinion that's a pretty damn big major negative for a photo orientated site and a complete deal breaker. Anyone been a member here recently and know if the site has working zip files?
I should also point out the price has increased from the one listed at PU/TBP. The join page states " 30 days membership 29.95 (USD/Euro) recurring monthly"

Pros:
Decent amount of content
Lots of exclusive content of well known euro babes
Photos look great
Zip down loads for pics
Good mix of solo, g/g and b/g content
The higher res 720 x 400 vids look great but not all the vids have this option
30 second preview and screen caps available for many of the vids so you can check them out to decide if they are worth using some of your precious daily download limit on
VIP lounge now included with standard membership
CC Bill
Cons:
Site no longer updating as of January 2010
2 GB download limit per 24 hours
Photos maybe too airbrushed or photo shopped for some tastes
No real model bios
Many of the latest video updates only in smaller option and look quite poor on full screen
Some models with unusual names here
Many models not listed in the model index and no search function
Videos not listed on the models page so you have to browse the video section separately to try and find videos of a certain model
Bottom Line:
Ive had this site in my list of possible joins for about 3 years now but its never quite
come to the top of the list until last month when I was checking out the preview and I noticed that they are no longer updating the site so I thought Id better join and grab what I want in case they have plans to take the site down like with their old asian 4 you site. My favourite niche is solo model photo content so I found plenty here to keep me interested, lots of exclusive photo sets of many of my favourite babes such as Eve Angel, Sophie Moon, Peach, Evelyn Lory and Milly Jay to name a few. Only problem was trying to grab it all within a month with the measly 2 GB download limit. You need to keep an eye on your downloads to avoid being locked out for 24 hours. With a lot of the newest pictures coming in 2000 px res and the zips being about 70 or 80 mb plus you dont get many for your 2 gig a day. The most common size for the older content is 1350 px.
If you go to the models index page you will find around 80 plus models listed, by no means all the models on the site so maybe its only the models with exclusive content listed here, not quite sure, so I found the best way to browse the site was to go through the updates calander to make sure I didnt miss anything. By doing this I came across 7 nice 2000 px photo sets of my favourite model Monika Vesela but on here she is under the name Irena Barry and theres no mention of this alias or photos here on her eurobabes index page so this was a nice find for me
Theres quite a sizable archive of content to plough through here as the site has been updating on average 2 photo sets per day 5 days a week since back in May 2006 but sadly the updates have stopped as of January this year. I guess thats why they now include the VIP section to compensate for lack of updates but all that consists of is around 100 plus galleries and a handful of videos.
I cant say much about the videos because they dont really interest me at all but the couple I did check out looked good in quality, 720 x 400 at 1700 kbps although quite boring as they were only solo model photo shoots set to music. Plenty of g/g and b/g content here though if that is your thing.
Overall I enjoyed the site with the only real irritation being the download limit, quite honestly if it was not for this I could probably have grabbed what interested me and finished with it in a week or two. If youre interested in the glamour photo thing and youve not been here before Id recommend it for a month but if youve been here before probably not worth coming back now the updates have stopped.
Current Member for less than 1 month (at the time of review).
Pros:
Choice of CCBill or Epoch payment processors.
Exclusive content in 1037 photo galleries and 1079 videos.
Photos downloadable as zip files in high-res and low-res.
Around 75% of the videos are 1280 x 720 HD.
Simple site layout, easy to navigate and download manager friendly.
Fast downloads, I was getting 6 MB/s pretty much my maximum speed.
Plenty of info provided, model bios, gallery descriptions, file sizes for zip file and video downloads.
Site currently offering a lockdown bonus where you get 60 days for the price of 30.
Cons:
This is an archive site with no updates. There's no dates on any of the content but I believe the site was active from around 2007 until 2013.
Not even a glimpse of naked pussy to be found here. This is a softcore glamour site with the emphasis on lingerie and tease. The most you will see is bare breasts and bum cheeks.
No way to view the high-res photos online, (only downloadable in the zips) unless I'm missing something.
Many of the videos are split into 2 or 3 parts.
No in-browser streaming of the videos.
Oldest videos max at 640 x 480.
Only download file type for video is wmv.
No PU discount.
Bottom Line:
Just before Easter I received an email offering me a half price $12.47 membership at Pin-Up Wow so as I've never seen a discount offered for this site before and never previously had a membership here decided to take them up on the offer. It's a British glamour site based on the idea of classic pin-up art, think of Only Tease but with more of a retro feel to the outfits, hair styles and lingerie. Expect to see lots of silk and satin lingerie and nightwear, suspender belts, seamed stockings and high heels. There's also a lot of costume/uniform themed sets such as schoolgirl, French maid, nurse and air hostess.
Most of the British based models here are quite familiar to me having done the rounds at other British glamour sites like Only Tease, Art-Lingerie and St Mackenzies several years ago. The model index is split into two sections; one featuring the 6 Pin-Up Wow star models then another 45 models listed in the guest model section. The 6 star models Carla Brown (from Only Carla), Lucy-Anne Brookes, Hayley-Marie Coppin (from Hayley's Secrets), Petra So, Bryoni Kate & Jodie Gasson have a huge amount of content each with between 57 and 131 photo sets each and almost as many videos. You also get to learn more about them in the form of a written Q & A session. My favourite model here is Petra So due to her Asian looks and incidentally she is the model with the most content here with 131 photo sets and 124 videos.
The site layout looks rather dated, typically something from the early 2000s but it is user friendly and easy to get around. Click on Galleries and you get all the photo sets and videos across 212 pages at 10 per page. There's a drop down menu of page numbers so you can jump instantly to any page. You can also select just photo sets or just videos. Downloading from the site using my download manager (Down them all) was an absolute breeze, the download links for zips and videos are all on the main listing page so no need to open every individual gallery. Just scroll down each page of 10 galleries or videos and left click on the zip or video download links to queue them in your manager. The layout is the same browsing via the model index with each model's updates listed 10 per page. There's also a navigation heading for albums which implies that the galleries were split into albums dated by month and year but since the dates have been removed they are now just numbered 1 to 70. These albums come with clickable keywords, click on black stockings for example and it brings up 383 galleries featuring black stockings.
If you're going to browse the photo galleries online clicking on a thumbnail will open up the image in a size around 850 x 1130 px and there is also a slide show feature with the ability to change the time delay from 1 to 20 seconds per picture. I don't see any way to expand the images further or view the high-res version online so it appears they are only available by downloading the zips. The image sizes in the high-res zips range from a smallest size of around 1400 x 1900 for the oldest sets up to 2000 x 3000 for the newer ones and several sizes in between. Photo sets average around 140 pictures per set.
The photo shoots and videos nearly all appear to be shot in a studio against a plain backdrop and using various items of furniture or props to set the scene and they do tend to use the same ones over and over again so it can become a bit repetitive. The only variation from this was a handful that looked as though they were shot in a bedroom. It would have been nice to see some outdoor shoots. The shoots are nearly all solo apart from a small number of two girl or multi girl shoots. As I mentioned in the cons the content is very tame here with the emphasis being on the clothing and lingerie tease and then the model being topless towards the end of the shoot.
Most of the videos I downloaded appear to be behind the scenes photo shoot type videos. Some videos have background music and some others you can here the camera going off and the photographer giving directions to the model. The banter between the model and photographer gives you a chance to see her personality if you like that sort of thing. The videos are generally between 5 to 10 minutes run time and often come in 2 to 3 parts. Frankly I found the videos boring and won't keep any of them.
At the regular price of $25 I would probably never have joined so as a photo collector appreciated the chance to get in for half price and add the photo shoots of these British models to my collection. A score of 80 is about the best I can give to an archive site that has not added anything new in something like 7 years.
I must admit it does seem a bit harsh to give a site the lowest possible score based solely on the navigation and not the actual content. and thanks for the tip about opening the models page in a new tab or window....i'll remember that when i eventually get round to joining it.
Just a quick follow up to my review of December 2nd in which i stated that the updates appeared to have dried up with nothing new being added in the last 2 months, to my surprise i logged in today to find a new photo gallery added this week spread over 2 updates. It will be interesting to see if this is just a one off or if the site is coming back to life again.
