Thanks for your prompt and informative reply. I think a 1-month subscription would be worthwhile, if only to get the photosets that I had previously from Glam-deluxe that I seem to have misplaced.
The bonus sites would be a nice bonus, even if they are not updating.
And I wouldn't expect to Glam-deluxe to update very frequently anyway. Even when I was a member about 5 years ago, the update schedule seemed very irregular, from what I recall.
Ema/Avril A is lovely. And there are a number of other models who I particularly like at Glam-deluxe.
There is a new photo set of her at Erotic Beauty dated 2013-02-10.
That is a new photo set I haven't seen before. I am currently a member of Erotic Beauty, and the photo set was actually shot years ago. I am basing that on how she looks. Her physical appearance changed very little over the years she was active, but you can still tell that she was getting older as the years went by.
The photographer, Thierry Murrell, has used her a model since she first started out. He is the main photographer at Glam Deluxe. And he also contributed a lot of her sets to Metart.
This is her first appearance at Erotic Beauty. But like I said, this is a photoset that was shot years ago.
It's been about 5 years since I was a member of this site. Back then, they had some really cute models. Nice softcore photography. Their preview pages give a very limited idea of the site contents. They advertise the site updates twice a week. But the preview pages don't show the posted dates of any recent updates.
What is new to me is that you are supposed to get a large number of bonus sites with your membership. The bonus sites are solo model sites and multi-model sites. I believe many of these bonus sites are archive sites, that have not updated in 1 or more years. But maybe it would be worth a 1-month membership to see what these sites have. Or not.
One cute model is Ema, who has her own site named Ema's Place. The site preview states she is 18, but she is also featured at Metart, under the name of Avril A, which says her current age is 25. I think Metart tries to be more accurate about a model's age than most web sites.
Anyway, Metart has 20 photosets of Avril A, the last one posted 2010-11-19.
The preview pages for Ema's Place state weekly updates, ultra fresh content. But my guess is that the last update to the Ema's Place site was probably a few years ago. I don't think Ema (or Avril A, or whatever name you use to call her) is still active as a model.
And that's probably true of many of the bonus sites you get with a Glam Deluxe membership. Bonus sites that no longer update.
I wish that the preview pages for these porn sites would more accurately reflect the current state of these sites, instead of promising you fresh, weekly updates that you won't be getting.
LOS ANGELES — Acclaimed adult industry photographer and videographer J. Stephen Hicks passed away Feb 06 2013 .
Hicks’ career spanned more than three decades. His work appeared in nearly every adult magazine including Penthouse, Hustler, Club, High Society, Gallery and more.
Hicks’ website —DigitalDesire.com — will continue to carry on his legacy.
They use many of the same models at 18 Only Girls, Young Legal Porn (those are Diesel Access network sites) and Wow Girls and Wow Porn (the Wow sites).
The furniture and locations and settings are usually minimal for the photosets and videos.
Back in December of 2012, the 18 Only Girls and Young Legal Porn sites were using the same preview pages. A PU member noticed this, and asked if the preview pages reflected what was inside the two sites accurately. I said the public preview pages did not show what was inside each separate site, but was a mixture of what was inside both sites. And the PU member thought that was false advertising.
Since then, they have changed the preview pages of 18 Only Girls and Young Legal Porn to show what is inside each individual site.
As far as I can tell, the public preview pages for Wow Girls and Wow Porn are different, and probably reflect content that is inside each site, and not a reflection of what is in both sites combined.
I think rearadmiral brings up an important point: For a collector, the search for porn is just as important as the porn you collect. I know I spend far more time looking for good porn than I do looking at it, especially with videos. Photosets are much easier to collect, because there are so many excellent sets at different sites. But with videos, you can look and look through average or poor videos before you find a few that are worth collecting.
I'm not an IT professional by any means. I can turn a PC on and off, and that's about the limit of my tech knowledge. (I can also click a mouse at the screen, and hope that will accomplish whatever it is I want to do).
But CCBill is one of the better payment processors, in my opinion. I've always had a good experience dealing with them. They send confirming emails when I subscribe or cancel a membership, which seems to be rare today. And it's nice to be able to search their site for membership information.
I don't like random passwords. But aren't those a function of the paysite, and not the credit card biller?
I certainly understand your frustration. But instead of blaming CCBill, the problem seems to me more with the paysite. The few times I ever had to contact CCBill customer support, it seemed to me I got courteous agents who tried to be helpful. CCBill can only do so much, they are only a billing agent, they don't have complete control of the account.
I've had problems with paysites in the past. But I don't blame CCBill for those problems. I think CCBill is a positive factor for me in joining a site, because I know that it will be easy to cancel a membership.
I was a member of this site years ago. There were some photosets that seemed, to me, more erotic than the usual Metart set. Maybe because the number of photos per set was smaller, and that seemed to imply greater selectivity in choosing the photos to be included in a set. The sets with Victoria were especially erotic.
When you write that you bought a longer subscription, how long do you mean? The only subscriptions I see are the 1-month and the 1-year. Did the site impress you enough for a 1-year subscription?
I agree with Jay G, except that now I'm in my 60s, I don't think 40s is all that old. But even in my teens, I didn't really think 40s was "old age", just a lot older than I was. Old age back then were my grandparents, who were probably in their 60s or 70s, with white hair and all.
The content of the two sites is similar. But I believe that each site has its own exclusive content. What I mean is, the content of each site is exclusive to that site. They do not share content (although both sites do use the same models).
Like you said, poor preview area. You click on a model's thumbnail to get a better view of what she looks like, and you are transferred to the sign-up page.
slutty, an expert or connoisseur could tell you the difference between 18 Only Girls, Young Legal Porn, Wow Girls, and Wow Porn.
But in my opinion, basically, all four sites feature the same type of porn. Mostly the same models. The same approach to good quality photosets and videos.
They are marketing the sites (Wow Girls and Wow Porn) separately to make more money.
I'm not knocking them. All four sites are good. And, as a marketing decision, you have to promote the sites, and try to show that they are different, so the potential customers can think there are differences.
But in truth, if you merged all four sites together into one big site, the main difference would be the owners/operators would make less money from running them.
To join 18 Only Girls, Young Legal Porn, Wow Girls, or Wow Porn, each site charges $29.97/month (recurring). That is the price Porn Users shows.
But if you go to each site, you see different price for Wow Girls.
Currently, I see Wow Girls for for $0.67/day, recurring monthly, with free access to Wow Porn. So that's approximately $20.10/month, giving you access to Wow Girls and Wow Porn. Porn Users does not mention the free bonus access you get, probably because this is a recent development, which might or might not last.
18 Only Girls site shows $0.97/day, recurring monthly, with free access to SkinnySuperGirl. So that's approximately $29.10/month.
Young Legal Porn site shows $0.97/day,recurring monthly, with free access to SkinnySuperGirl. So that's approximately $29.10/month.
Wow Porn is the newest site, with the smallest amount of content (videos and photosets).
Wow Girls is the next newest site, with more content than Wow Porn, but far less than Young Legal Porn or 18 Only Girls.
So you get the most content for your money with 18 Only Girls.
Then comes Young Legal Porn as the next most content for your money.
Many of the models at each site (18 Only Girls, Young Legal Porn, Wow Girls, Wow Porn) appear at each of the other sites.
As a side consideration, if you remain a member of 18 Only Girls or Young Legal Porn for more than 2 months (this was true last year, so I assume it's still true today), you get access to all 14 sites in the Diesel Access network.
So I would recommend joining 18 Only Girls, if this is your first introduction to these sites.
The truth is, a video or photoset that appears at any one of the 4 sites, could just as easily be placed in any of the 4 sites.
If you study the videos and photosets at 18 Only Girls and Young Legal Porn, you will find photosets of some videos, where the video is at 1 of those sites, and the matching photoset is at the other of those sites.
The 2 Wow sites are the newest, so in general they have the highest overall quality of the videos and photosets. But I would join either 18 Only Girls or Young Legal Porn because they have greater quantity.
But any 1 of the first 3 sites I recommend should give you a good introduction/sample of what these sites are offering.
I agree that the Diesel Access network and the Wow Girls and Wow Porn sites are solid offerings.
It would be nice if they added the Wow Girls and Wow Porn sites to the Diesel Access network, to lower the membership fees. Because as far as I can see, Wow Girls and Wow Porn would fit in easily.
The problem is that it's a marketing decision, and obviously, if you market the sites individually, you will probably make more money.
But at least the Diesel Access network, and the two Wow sites, are updating with good quality content. And some of the models are truly lovely.
By the way, tangub posted a comment that he received an email offer yesterday to join Wow Girls and Wow Porn together for $9.99. You might check your email boxes to see if you got the same offer.
I checked mine, but didn't see that offer. So I cancelled my subscription to Wow Girls (and Wow Porn), and will wait for a similar offer before rejoining.
I check my inbox and spam folders emails daily. Before deleting, i check the sender and subject line.
But I never got the one you found.
But it's a nice offer. I'm cancelling my Wow Girls membership, and will probably wait until I get a similar offer, before I subscribe to that site again.

REPLY TO #2 - lk2fireone :
Thank you lk2fireone!
Indeed, when you buy a membership of 5 months access, you will get access to all our sites in DieselAccess network. You can also join with TBP montnly discount link and after staying a member with us for two months, you will get access to all our sites at no additional cost.
WowGirls is a separate site but we will release soon a loyalty access for it as well.
Now, get there and enjoy the girls and the content :))
Wow Girls and Wow Porn are marketed separately from the Diesel Access network of Young Legal Porn, 18 Only Girls, and the other 12 sites in the Diesel Access network.
I've joined the 14 site Diesel Access network for the 5-month membership. You get access to the 14 sites in that network, including Young Legal Porn, 18 Only Girls, and the other 12 sites (but not Wow Girls or Wow Porn).
Also, if you join 18 Only Girls or Young Legal Porn and stay a member for more than 2 months, I believe you then gain access to all 14 sites in the Diesel Access network. At least, that's what what the Webmaster wrote in a reply to some comment last year.
I'm wondering how many other sites have options to make the sites easier to use. I guess I'm just lazy, because I log in to most sites, and don't bother to test any ways there might be to make the site more user-friendly.
But I'm glad I found the Metart link that changes measurements from metric to English.
I've been a member of Metart for many years, off and on. But I just realized you can set some options on how the site is displayed.
You can show measurements in metric or imperial.
Imperial is the British system of measurements: Feet and inches for length, pounds for weight.
Although they have taught the metric system in the United States for many years, I still have to translate metric to the British system, because I grew up with feet-inches and pounds, and metric measurements just aren't natural for me; I have to translate them to feet-inches and pounds to understand what they mean.
This is a simple thing, really. But it makes the Metart site easier to use.
Also, you can select the language the site is displayed:
Deutsch (which is German, I assume)
English
Espanol (Spanish)
Nederlands
Chinese? (I'm guessing, it's some kind of oriental language)
Japanese? (I'm guessing, it's some kind of oriental language)
? (Some other oriental language
So I guess that Metart truly is an international site, promoting softcore porn throughout the world.
